Link Error VS2008 - xxxxx already defined in libcpmt.lib

I have a project that has been working fine with IPP and I've just added a call to ippiResizeSqrPixel_8u_C4R. Now I'm getting the follwoing link errors -

1>libcpmt.lib(locale0.obj) : error LNK2005: "public: static unsigned int __cdecl std::char_traits::length(char const *)" (?length@?$char_traits@D@std@@SAIPBD@Z) already defined in msvcprtd.lib(MSVCP90D.dll)

My configuration is
Visual Studio 2008SP1. Current version IPP. All modules compiled with /MDd setting. I'm am linking to IPP using static linking with dispatch configuration.

Ipp libraries included -

• ippsemerged.lib
• ippsmerged_t.lib
• ippiemerged.lib
• ippimerged_t.lib
• ippcore_t.lib
• libiomp5mt.lib
• libircmt.lib

Suggestions as to what I need to do.

Have you tried cleaning and rebuilding? It appears that one or more C++ files were compiled with /MT rather than /MDd .

[photo_tom]

Yes. I had considered that and checked all my projects.

have you tried to exclude "msvcprtd.lib" from linking ?
