-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I am getting the following error when compiling a c++ source: /d/Temp/ccuwCNBi.s: Assembler messages: /d/Temp/ccuwCNBi.s:11: Error: symbol `_D' is already defined ==snip== extern "C" { __attribute__((dllimport)) Dtmethod_t* Dtset; __attribute__((dllimport)) Dtmethod_t* Dtbag; } add explicit extern to your declarations of extern variables, eg: extern __attribute__((dllimport)) Dtmethod_t* Dtset; This is fixed in CVS sources: __attribute__((dllimport)) implicitly adds extern.
