    Default different method signatures for mingw and visual c

    I am writing code to be compiled with both MinGW and Visual C compiler. I am using define like this:

    I have defined VISUAL_STUDIO In my project file as follows:
    Qt Code:
    1. QMAKE_CFLAGS_DEBUG += -O2 VISUAL_STUDIO
    2. QMAKE_CFLAGS += -O2 -DVISUAL_STUDIO
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    I get multiple definition error for the following code

    Qt Code:
    1. #ifdef VISUAL_STUDIO
    2. int FUNCA(
    3. #else
    4. static inline int FUNCA(
    5. #endif
    6. Pkt_t *pkt
    7. )
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Can anybody help me with this or any idea to do it in different was will be appreciated?

    why do you have -D in one, but not the other?

    also, maybe you're just including the file too many times... It's hard to tell without a complete compilable example - see my sig.
    If you have a problem, CUT and PASTE your code. Do not retype or simplify it. Give a COMPLETE and COMPILABLE example of your problem. Otherwise we are all guessing the problem from a fabrication where relevant details are often missing.

    You get a multiple definition of which symbol exactly? Are you sure this is caused by your defines and not a non-inlined function declaration in line #2?
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.
