Ошибка lnk2005 main уже определен в consoleapplication1 obj

Решил проверить код из книги ООП в С++ Лафоре но в Visual Studio не получается его повторить

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int Main()
{
    for (int j = 0; j<80; j++)
    {
        char ch = (j%8) ? ' ' : 'x';
        cout << ch;
    }
    return 0;
}

Подскажите пожалуйста, что я делаю не так?

В Borland все работает

Причина: функция int main() должна быть с маленькой буквы

Почему в данном файле он VS выдавал ошибку, если писать её с маленькой? Потому что точкой входа в программу в данном случае в VS является файл *.cpp, имя которого совпадает с именем проекта, то есть ConsoleApplication1.cpp. Именно там находится int main(), и оно уже было сгенерированно самой IDE, но вы видимо не увидели.

Таким образом, весь код надо поместить в ConsoleApplication1.cpp.

Разобрался сам. причин не знаю но в новом проекте все заработло

Я не знаю, откуда Вы брали тексты примеров, но если взять их с ОФЦИАЛЬНОГО сайта (в книжке есть ссылка) и скачать, то выглядит этот текст так:

 // condi.cpp // prints 'x' every 8 columns
 // demonstrates conditional  operator

 #include <iostream> using namespace std;

 int main()    {    for(int j=0; j<80; j++)
      //for every column,
       {                             //ch is 'x' if column is
       char ch = (j%8) ? ' ' : 'x';  //multiple of 8, and
       cout << ch;                   //' ' (space) otherwise
       }    return 0;    }

И всё великолепно компиллируется и работает.

When you compile you’re library, its lib file contains a definition for SetPersonName. When you compile your program that uses the library, since it includes the header, and you’ve written the code inline in the header it also compiles in a definition for SetPersonName. Two definitions for the same function aren’t (generally) allowed. The static keyword tells the compiler that the function shouldn’t be exposed outside of the current translation unit (discrete piece of code you are compiling), so the definition in the library isn’t visible to the linker.

The appropriate solution to this problem depends on your goals. Header files with static function declarations is almost never what you want. From a design standpoint I would recommend getting rid of SetPersonName altogether, and just use Person::SetName.

However, failing that, I would implement it much like you’ve done for the rest of your functionality, declarations in the header, and implementation in the .cpp. Inline functions associated with a library will tend to diminish many of the advantages of using a library in the first place.

By declaring the function static you are scoping it to the current translation unit, so in effect you have added a new SetPersonName function in your main file, and would be calling that not the one defined in the library.

The correct solution is to declare SetPersonName as extern in person.h and implement it in person.cpp

Person.h

extern void SetPersonName(Person& person,const std::string name);

Person.cpp

void SetPersonName(Person& person,const std::string name)
{
    person.SetName(name);
}

1. The function SetPersonName will be compiled into each objectfile that includes the Person.h file, thus making the linker seeing several functions and giving the error.

2. By writing static you state that the function will only be visible within a single objectfile. You will still get several functions in you binary but now you will not get the errors.

3. Try to write inline before the function like

   inline void SetPersonName(Person& person,const std::string name)
   {
       person.SetName(name);
   }
   

   …because the function is pretty simple it is OK I think to have it as an inline. An inline will place the necessary code where the function is used, without actually creating a function to be called.

I had a similar situation as described clearly by @logan-capaldo above.

A CPP source file (myfile.cpp) contained a function MyFunction. When building, this got compiled into myfile.obj. But the main CPP file (main.cpp) also included myfile.cpp, so the function MyFunction was being included/compiled/linked twice, leading to the «LNK2005 already defined» error.

This is messy but I didn’t have time to fix it properly. The quickest fix (in VS Express 2012) was to right-click myfile.cpp in Solution Explorer, go to Properties and change Excluded From Build to Yes. I guess this prevents one of the OBJ files from being created and/or linked and so removes the error.

For anyone landing here dealing with this error in a Qt project, make sure you don’t have any non-signal functions defined under signals: in your header files.

Incorrect, throws LNK2005 on Foo::promiseData():

class Foo : public QObject {
        Q_OBJECT

    public:
        explicit Foo(QObject* parent = nullptr);

    signals:
        void dataReady(QList<QObject*> data) const;

        void promiseData() const; // <-- This function is not supposed to be a signal.

Correct:

class Foo : public QObject {
        Q_OBJECT

    public:
        explicit Foo(QObject* parent = nullptr);

        void promiseData() const;

    signals:
        void dataReady(QList<QObject*> data) const;
