Not able to built my project in Release mode!please help me...

Question

Hello friends,I am having a very diifult situation here...Actually I am developing a MFC project.In my project I have another small project inlcuded as a lib input to my main project.. I set the "use of MFC"--as "use MFC in Shared Dll" in my project settings...its working great..but when I set the "use of MFC" -- as "use MFC in static dll"..am not able to built the project both in debug/release mode.The reason that I dont want to set the "use MFC as Shared Dll" is because I want my project to run in machine which do not support visual studio...I am getting the following error:

error LNK2005: "void * __cdecl operator new(unsigned int)" (??2@YAPAXI@Z) already defined in Client7z.lib(NewHandler.obj) uafxcwd.lib SelfExtractor

I read an article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/148652[^]..as per their suggestion i tried to ignore the follwing library Nafxcwd.lib;Libcmtd.lib but still its not working...if u guys knw any solution please help me.

Answer 1

You have to also change C runtime to static version. It's in C/C++ -> Code Generation -> Runtime Library.

Set it to /MT (Release) or /MTd (Debug).

Answer 2

Check out these settings on debug mode:

Link->General:
Object/Libary modules: Nafxcwd.lib Libcmtd.lib Client7z.lib

Link->Input:
Object/Libary modules: Nafxcwd.lib Libcmtd.lib Client7z.lib
Ignore libraries: libcmtd.lib,libcd.lib

A wild guess but at least you can try it.
