Re: Copy configuration link error

I created a new configuration (VS6) and copied settings from an
existing (working)
configuration. Now, the new configuration has a link error:

mfcs42.lib(dllmodul.obj) : error LNK2005: _DllMain@12 already defined
in msvcrt.lib(dllmain.obj)

Make sure MFC setting agrees with CRT setting. See

Project | Settings | General | Microsoft Foundation Classes
Project | Settings | C/C++ | Code Generation | Use run-time library

If you choose "Use MFC in a Static Library" for the first setting, you
should also use something not containing DLL (e.g. Multithreaded or
Debug Multithreaded) for the second setting. And if you choose "Use MFC
in a Shared DLL", you should choose DLL version of CRT.

Your current configuration links to MFC statically and to CRT
dynamically. This won't work.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
