Multiple definition [...] first define here

I'm writing a H264 parser (no OO), but I'm trying to use some modules to organize better the things.

I'm having this problems:

My scenario is:

macroblocktypes.h. just with defines

macroblocktables.h:

#include "macroblocktypes.h"

int I_Macroblock_Modes[27][7];
int P_and_SP_macroblock_modes[32][7];
int B_Macroblock_Modes[50][7];

int I_macroblockmodes(int line, int column);
int P_and_SP_macroblockmodes(int line, int column);
int B_macroblockmodes(int line, int column);

macroblocktables.cpp, with a array and a function defined like this for each array and function on .h file.

#include "macroblocktables.h"
int I_macroblock_modes[27][7] ={
{0, I_4x4, 0, Intra_4x4, NA, NA, NA},

And finally my h.264 files (.cpp and .h). Im including in the .h the macroblocktable.h and macroblocktype.h, and in the h.264.cpp just the h.264.h.

I would like to use the functions from the macroblocktable.cpp in the h.264.cpp.

Thanks in advance

You must keep only the declarations in a .h file, not the definitions, lest you should get any linker errors. These

int I_Macroblock_Modes[27][7];
int P_and_SP_macroblock_modes[32][7];
int B_Macroblock_Modes[50][7];

are definitions, not intuitive as it may seem. Change these to

extern int I_Macroblock_Modes[27][7];
extern int P_and_SP_macroblock_modes[32][7];
extern int B_Macroblock_Modes[50][7];

and you should be fine

Thanks for your answer but I dont wanna access the arrays outside, but kind of encapsulate then in the macroblocktable.cpp and call the functions from that .cpp. I remove the declarations from the .h, and the 'multiple definition' errors stop; but i still having the 'h.264parser.cpp:(.text+0x104): undefined reference to `B_macroblockmodes(int, int)'' error when I try to call the functions from the h.265.cpp. =(Teenateenage
@Pmdusso: You don't need to remove any declarations from anywhere. Follow these steps: 1) In the .h file add the extern keyword to the array declarations. Leave the array definitions in the cpp file intact. 2) Add the definition of B_macroblockmodes(int, int) function to the cpp file (you have forgotten to write the body, hence the error)Harmattan
if you mean write the B_macroblockmodes(int, int) in the macroblocktable.cpp, I did! You can see in the question... and I write the definitions of the arrays back in the macroblocktable.h with the extern, thanks!Teenateenage
@Pmdusso: er... no, you haven't. Where is the body of that function?Harmattan
ah... sorry... I just wrote the int I_macroblockmodes(int line, int column) to save space here... but all three are there, I will edit it. Thats it, they are there now.Teenateenage

It's not "just defines". You are declaring variables inside it, therefore every time that gets included your are redeclaring global variables.

If what you want is to access I_Macroblock_Modes from other .c/.cpp files, in the macroblocktables.h header you should put:

//resides in macroblocktables.cpp
extern int I_Macroblock_Modes[27][7];
extern int P_and_SP_macroblock_modes[32][7];
extern int B_Macroblock_Modes[50][7];

// the rest of it

Because those int arrays are defined in macroblocktables.cpp, right?

In C/C++ everytime you do something like:

int myarray[4];
char mychar;

or more generally

type var_name;

you are telling to the compiler: please allocate on the stack for me, a variable named X that has type T.

when you #include header.h, in the most basic explanation, you are telling the preprocessor: open header.h ctrl+c all of it, and ctrl+v it here. Then that preprocessed source file is fed to your compiler and every time it sees type var_name it will do what i explained above.

Sorry if this is too much info, but I just felt like writing it :P

Sorry dont make it clear, but the file with just defines is the macroblocktypes.h. I know the macroblocktable.h have variables declared on itTeenateenage
@hexa should i make the functions extern also? Making the arrays extern resolved the multiple definition... but i dont know what to do with the functions now!Teenateenage
the function prototypes are fine :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_prototypeProteose
yep they are but still having 'undefined reference to' error from the h.264.cpp... =/Teenateenage
are you including the .h on h264.cpp? with the added extern for the arrays?Proteose
