When I link, I get the following error messages: /home/kris/PPhead/buildblock/libbuildblock.a(sinodata.o)(.data+0x0):sinodata ..cc: multiple definition of `__default_alloc_template::start_free' c:\TEMP\cc0016191.o(.data+0x0):testPSOV.cc: first defined here /home/kris/PPhead/buildblock/libbuildblock.a(sinodata.o)(.data+0x4):sinodata ..cc: multiple definition of `__default_alloc_template::end_free' c:\TEMP\cc0016191.o(.data+0x4):testPSOV.cc: first defined here /home/kris/PPhead/buildblock/libbuildblock.a(sinodata.o)(.data+0x8):sinodata ..cc: multiple definition of `__default_alloc_template::heap_size' c:\TEMP\cc0016191.o(.data+0x8):testPSOV.cc: first defined here /home/kris/PPhead/buildblock/libbuildblock.a(sinodata.o)(.data+0xc):sinodata ..cc: multiple definition of `__default_alloc_template::free_list' c:\TEMP\cc0016191.o(.data+0xc):testPSOV.cc: first defined here Is there a way out ? One suggestion is to use egcs, which does not have the above problem. However, I just stumbled on another bug there such that my things don't compile with egcs...
