I've read some previous posts about compilation issues, but they don't seem to pertain to my problem. I have a class declaration in which some private functions pass a vector of SSQLS type. During compilation, my compiler returns: "multiple definition of log::names" and "multiple definition of log::_table" errors. Not sure if it matters, but I am compiling on FreeBSD using g++ (3.4.2) and mysql++ 1.7.40.

Here are the relevant items from my class declaration:

Outside of my class type I use the sql_create to build the structure.

sql_create_12(log, 1,12, int, serialnumber, ....... .......)

Inside of my class declaration, I have the function:

print_log(vector<log> log_vector);

The only reason I need this SSQLS defined inside my class declaration file is so that this function knows the data type being passed. Before I started building this class, I had a test program running using this structure. It compiled and ran with no errors in the exact manner in which I wanted.

Is this possible to do? Can I use this SSQLS inside my class like this? If so, how? If not, what kind of hack-a-rounds can I do to make it work?

Any and all help would be very much appreciated, Billy
