- We are using the AT&T C++ compiler version 2.1, on a sequent
- symmetry running DYNIX version 3.2. We are having the following
- problem, whenever we have a user defined function with a name
- that is the same as a function defined in libc.a the loader/link editor
- comes back and complains about multiple declaration of the said
- function.
-
- For example, say i wanted to write my own malloc and wanted to override
- the system malloc.
-
- Sometime back when we were using AT&T C++ compiler version 1.2
- on the same machine running DYNIX version 3.0.18 everything
- was fine i.e we were able to override functions defined in
- libc.a.
-
- Any help in fixing the above problem will be appreciated.
