MSVC 2005 has bugs when including <intrin.h>.
Second linkage error
If you get the following errors:
error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function '_interlockedbittestandset' not allowed
error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function '_interlockedbittestandreset' not allowed
They happen when both <intrin.h> and <windows.h> are included in the same file. One way to get around it is to define a rename for these functions before including intrin.h. E.g.:
#if _MSC_VER <= 1400 #define _interlockedbittestandreset _interlockedbittestandreset_NAME_CHANGED_TO_AVOID_MSVS2005_ERROR #define _interlockedbittestandset _interlockedbittestandset_NAME_CHANGED_TO_AVOID_MSVS2005_ERROR #endif
Unresolved external for intrinsic function
If you get the following or a similar linker error when using an intrinsic function such as _ReadBarrier, _WriteBarrier, _ReadWriteBarrier, etc.
You need to explicitly declare the function as intrinsic (even if you included <intrin.h>). E.g.:
#pragma intrinsic(_ReadWriteBarrier)
