duplicate symbol
Please support our C++ advertiser: Intel Parallel Studio Home

During a C++ script compilation, and doing exe building in AIX 5.3 using xlC compiler, I get the warning shown below:
The warning does not cause any problems in building EXE or during validation but too many warnings for building each EXE is annoying.
Can someone please help me on how to set the flag in Makefile so that this warning can be removed and build is done without this?

maybe you included the same header file more than once and left out the code guards.

Is this valid?..

If you don't know what's causing a warning, you'd be a fool to disable it. I only know of one warning, on any compiler that I've ever used, where I'm 100% sure that it can be safely disabled. The correct response to a warning is understanding it and then fixing it.

Clearly. That's why I felt the need to tell you that disabling a warning without understanding it is the height of stupidity. You're not stupid, are you?

The problem could be the result of several different things, and no one can tell you specifically without seeing the code. Another possible cause, besides the ones I already mentioned previously, is putting the implementation code in a header file. In that case it will be duplicated in every *.cpp file that uses the header file, thus the duplicate error message(s). The solution is to put the implementation code in one *.cpp file, leaving only the class declaration in the header file.
