This is what I get when I compile my VC project using the MySQL++ for VC:

Linking... libcpmtd.lib(xlock.obj) : error LNK2005: "public: __thiscall std::_Lockit::~_Lockit(void)" (??1_Lockit@std@@QAE@XZ) already defined in mysql++.lib(sql_query.obj) libcpmtd.lib(xlock.obj) : warning LNK4006: "public: __thiscall std::_Lockit::~_Lockit(void)" (??1_Lockit@std@@QAE@XZ) already defined in mysql++.lib(sql_query.obj); second definition ignored Creating library Debug/Export.lib and object Debug/Export.exp Debug/Export.dll : fatal error LNK1169: one or more multiply defined symbols found Error executing link.exe.

Export.dll - 2 error(s), 12 warning(s)

OK so what I think is happening is that a function is being declared twice. I have browsed the internet google searches and all-sorts. They all point to the project settings tab (im using VC6) and excluding the libraries in question. I have tried this but when I try and compile it again it gives me like hundreds - ok 30 errors. Someone must of had this problem before. Please what can I do to get rid of it. (BTW: One site pointed to changing the run-time libraries from multi-threaded DLL to multi-threaded, this compiled but the calling program could not find the DLL)

Please Help, any advice?
