[ACCEPTED]-Two files of the same name give linker error in Visual Studio-visual-studio-2010

I believe the problem comes from the fact 10 that all your .obj files are written to 9 the same folder, and so the outputs from 8 compiling those two source files are colliding. I 7 think there are at least two possible solutions:

Use a different output directory (build directory) for each input folder
Create custom object file names for each (or just one) of your source files

I'm 6 not certain about the first option, but 5 for the second, you should be able to right-click 4 the source file in the solution explorer, select 3 "Properties", and find some configuration 2 setting to over-ride the output (.obj) file 1 created for that source file.

Score: 9

Use $(IntDir)%(RelativeDir) in "Object File Name" property 3

(Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Output 2 Files -> Object File Name)

of project, OR
of .cpp file.
