Migrating from VC++ 6 to VC++ 2005

Hello ,

I am trying to migrate to VC++ 2005 from VC++ 6 and got this error while compiling my code.


error C2766: explicit specialization; 'UINT HashKey<CString>(CString)' has already been defined

I was not the original author of the code and starting working with VC++ 2005. Can you please help . Here is what my code looks like.


template<>
inline UINT AFXAPI HashKey(CString key)
{
return HashKey((LPCTSTR)key);
}

I got this problem solved. You can mail me if you would like to get out if this.

You posted the problem on a public forum, so post the solution on the forum.

I feel your pain. I've been working for a while upgrading a BIG (50,000 lines of code or something of that order) project from VC++ 6 to VC++ .NET 2005. It's been a long and painful experience (that isn't quite over with yet).
