I am converting an MFC application for deadlock detection in to Simple console application. During this process I found many errors saying like:

error C2365: 'CmdLockMutex' : redefinition; previous definition was 'enumerator'

I am unable to remove this error.
Kindly if someone could help me in this regard.

Updated subject and tags, hope this helps to find an answer. Probably helps if you show source code.

Solution 1

You've defined CmdLockMutex more than once. Perhaps you've got an issue with your #include files ? Is this an MFC class and you've not got MFC linked to your console app ? Hard to say more without seeing code.

Solution 2

Sounds like you need a header guard around your definition of `CmdLockMutex` (Add `#pragma once` at the top of its .h file.). Or rather you have a naming conflict.

Maybe you have something like this:

enum MyEnum { MyEnumVal1, MyEnumVal2 };

//....

class MyEnum
{
    
};
