Win 10 x64 MSVS 2017 v141 compiler

Hello and welcome everybody.
This is not a bug that crashes Blender, but it fails at linking stage, so I though it still needs to be reported:
For about I week I couldn't compile Blender(master as well as blender 2.8), as I always failed with the following linking error LNK2005:

Today I had a look into this problem for myself, as it didn't go away and I resolved it by commenting out the function SetCommandLineOption in gflags.cc

File: extern\gflags\src\gflags.cc
Line 1693 to 1695:

*string SetCommandLineOption(const char* name, const char* value) {*  return SetCommandLineOptionWithMode(name, value, SET_FLAGS_VALUE);
//}

I don't know whether or not anybody else has experienced the same issue, but I think this is something that needs some further investigation...

i'm gonna have to close this as per tracker rules

What not to report here

For Blender 2.8, please only report crashes. The bug tracker will be open for more general reports later.
Feature requests, see the developer contact page.
Compile or build issues, ask on #blendercoders or mail bf-committers.

that being said, I can't reproduce this , neither can the builbots, have do you done local modifications ?

I haven't done local modifications and I even deleted and recloned the blender GitHub repository..libs are up to date as well (svn update in the console)..

But if it doesn't occure anywhere else it should be fine..maybe something has changed on my pc that I'm not aware of..thank you anyway for your time!

it's highly suspicious that it is picking up a library for gflags.dll we link everything static,it kinda sounds like it's picking up some other library off your system.

had to use vcpkg to compile meshroom..and if I remember correctly (although I would have to check on that once I'm back at my computer) the include directory for the installed packages is in my PATH folder.. I will check on that..

I checked whether or not the gflags.dll is included in one of the packages that I have installed with vcpkg and it actually is. I think the user-wide integration of vcpkg is the root of visual studio mixing up the definitions, because the directory isn't defined in my system variables: .\vcpkg integrate install as seen here: vcpkg githup.

look into why it's linking gflagsd.lib and where it is coming from,
