title: Force resolution of multiple function definitions in MSVC
body: <p>I am trying to link a project that has 2 libraries that share functions (one is a branch of the other) as well as having unique functions necessary to the program. Because they share functions, the linker complains about multiple definitions. Is there a way in MSVC to force "use the first one you come across" rather than have to change something architecturally?</p>
