I compiled with VS6 and VS.NET just fine, try doing a clean compile

Same compile error

Linking...
EQClasses.obj : fatal error LNK1279: invalid or corrupt file: file contains invalid .sxdata contributions

VS .net 2003

I compiled the MQ2-20031128a.zip 28-Nov-2003 00:12 643k
without any issues.

Let me make sure though.

Unzip file MQ2-Latest.zip
Copy my mq2auth1.h and mq2auth2.h into mq2main directory
Open the macroquest2.dsw (I tried the macroquest2.sln also)
Verify I am set for Release
Then build
- Even tried doing Batch Build

Try this.. before doing the MQ2Main build, hit Build->Clean

Build Clean Solution
Then Build Mq2main
- Error
EQClasses.obj : fatal error LNK1279: invalid or corrupt file: file contains invalid .sxdata contributions

Build Clean Solution
Then Batch Build Release
- Error
EQClasses.obj : fatal error LNK1279: invalid or corrupt file: file contains invalid .sxdata contributions

Thanks in advance,

Bob

I get the same error in VS .NET 2003 while linking MQ2Main.dll:

EQClasses.obj : fatal error LNK1279: invalid or corrupt file: file contains invalid .sxdata contributions

Tried clean, and tried getting a fresh checkout from CVS. No luck

Confirmed. This is a problem.

Linker Tools Error LNK1279

invalid or corrupt file: file contains invalid .sxdata contributions

One of the input files to the linker had a .sxdata section, which contains exception handler information, but the content of the .sxdata section was invalid.

Try recompiling the module. If it still produces a file with invalid .sxdata section, then contact Microsoft Product Support Services.

Code: Select all

[color=red]#if 0[/color]
#ifdef CXMLSOMDocumentBase__XMLRead
REVERSE_DETOUR(bool  CXMLSOMDocumentBase::XMLRead(class CXStr,class CXStr,class
CXStr),CXMLSOMDocumentBase__XMLRead);
#endif
[color=red]#endif[/color]

Add the lines in red. I have no idea why it fails...
