Currently the line reads:<br><br>#if !defined(__MINGW32__) || defined(__MINGW32__) && !defined(DLL_EXPORT) || <br>!defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__CYGWIN__) && !defined(DLL_EXPORT)<br><br>However if it is changed to read:<br><br>#if defined(__MINGW32__) &&
!defined(DLL_EXPORT) || <br>!defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__CYGWIN__)
&& !defined(DLL_EXPORT)<br><br>It compiles correctly.<br><br>Therefore I think this is a logic issue. If __CYGWIN__ is defined, then you would expect __MINGW32__ not to be defined, or vice versa. So this condition will always be met even if you have either Cygwin or MinGW (at least that seems to be what's happening on my system). I don't exactly understand how the multiple definition errors are occuring, so can't suggest a replacement, but wouldn't a nested if structure be better, eg:<br><br>if mingw32 or cygwin defined<br> if dll_export defined<br> do nothing<br> else <br> include inline files<br> end if<br>do nothing<br>else<br>include inline files<br>end if<br><br>Regards<br><br>Steve<br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><font size="2"
