The following error is from "Linker Error Messages" in the manual
"CodeView and Utilities", Section C.2, Page 368, and in the "Microsoft
QuickC Compiler Programmer's Guide," Section D.4, Page 373:
L2025 name : symbol defined more than once
Remove the extra symbol definition from the object file.
Nonfatal errors indicate problems in the executable file. LINK
produces the executable file. Nonfatal error messages have the
following format:
location : error L2xxx: messagetext
In these messages, location is the input file associated with the
error, or LINK if there is no input file. If the input file is an OBJ
or LIB file and has a module name, the module name is enclosed in
parentheses.
One way this error can be caused is by incorrectly using or omitting a
keyword such as pascal. If the included function prototype has the
keyword and the library routine does not, or vice versa, the linker
reports that the function is defined more than once.
