Hi Hackers,
I'm attempting to build the Fiasco.OC kernel including several additional files. When I attempt to make, I get endless complaints about multiple definitions of functions. The catch is, every single file I have added has a unique include guard...
A few things I want to check:
My files are written in standard c++ format, not Preprocess compatible
format. E.g. I make use of namespaces. I haven't added the files to any modules lists / Makerules files, so my thinking is that I'm just trying to link with these files but not use any of their features (for testing purposes). My impression was that namespace usage would be tolerated for files used thus: Preprocess doesn't complain.
The c++ preprocessor is still run, correct? I don't see include guards
in kernel source files: are these generated by Preprocess, or simply not needed?
Specifically, the errors start appearing at "==> Archiving into
jdb_compound.o," and they complain about finding a definition of a function in my source file which was already defined in an object file, e.g.:
jdb-ia32-amd64.o: In function `prio_queue_rel::query_iterator_priority__element::next()': /home/bryce/parsnip/fiasco_modified_src/recovery/src/kernel/fiasco/src/kern/R_test11impl.cpp:499: multiple definition of `prio_queue_rel::query_iterator_priority__element::next()' jdb.o:/home/bryce/parsnip/fiasco_modified_src/recovery/src/kernel/fiasco/src/kern/R_test11impl.cpp:499: first defined here
I know that's not a lot to go on, but I'm not sure what else would be useful. Please let me know what I do to help you help me...
Thank you! --Bryce
