function redefinition. quake 3

if anyone knows anything about the q3 source, its going to be a lot of help to me, if not, read on anyway. Im trying to enable the loadconfig and saveconfig menus.

I am getting this error from the compile ;

Code:

---

debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.o(.text+0x574): In function `UI_LoadConfigMenu':
debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.c:238: multiple definition of `UI_LoadConfigMenu'

if you look closely, its the same word !! the only way it could be redefined if it was in a loop of some sort....

the code is as follows :

Code:

---

void UI_LoadConfig_Cache( void ) {
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_BACK0 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_BACK1 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FIGHT0 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FIGHT1 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FRAMEL );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FRAMER );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWS );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWLEFT );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWRIGHT );
}

im not defineing a fuction either...

If its unclear, please tell me. Many thanks.

Hmm is it just me or does the function you posted not match the compile errors?

(UI_LoadConfigMenu/UI_LoadConfig_Cache)

My bad. I get these compile errors :

Code:

---

debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.o(.text+0x574): In function `UI_LoadConfig_Cache':
debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.c:232: multiple definition of `UI_LoadConfig_Cache'
debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.o(.text+0x574):debug-x86-Linux-2.3/Q3/q3_ui/q3_ui/ui_loadconfig.c:232: first defined here

---

And on line 232, the line the compile error is relating to, is the funtion I previously posted :

Code:

---

void UI_LoadConfig_Cache( void ) { // <<<< Line 232
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_BACK0 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_BACK1 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FIGHT0 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FIGHT1 );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FRAMEL );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_FRAMER );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWS );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWLEFT );
        trap_R_RegisterShaderNoMip( ART_ARROWRIGHT );
}

I think its looping the file, somehow, or building it twice, im not quite sure. When I try to compile the file, on its own, without the build - then it compiles fine.

( I think those errors I posted are build errors )

Each have a set of forums specifically devoted to modifying the q3 sdk. I've used them both many a times. They are great resources, you will probably find most answers to your problems there.

Thhis one seems to be of a more trivial problem, having to do with including wrong files too many times. Its unlikely any one here will know what is wrong specificaly. Just look through your code, its probably an obvious mistake you are over looking.

yah, I was building the file twice. I figured this out right after I posed my last post, but forgot to come back. sorry.
