I'm working on a set of C++ classes to encapsulate pthreads for a system which will eventually run on MPE and Linux, and I've run into a problem on the MPE side. The pthread.h file defines two variables at file scope, 'pthd_push_pop_once_flag' and '_pthd_cleanup_key'. If pthread.h gets #included into more than one source file (which it inevitably does), I get a duplicate symbol error at link time (LINKERR 1015). I've come up with a spectacularly hideous workaround for the short term, but I would like to know if there is a way to tell the linker to force multiple instances of the symbols to resolve to the same locations, or if there is a patch for pthread.h that doesn't define them at file scope. This is with g++ 2.95.2, MPE/iX 6.5. Thanks in advance. * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
