all,

I have a RPC client that wants to talk with two RPC servers. When I
integrated both IDL file into the client code, I got a name conclifct in a C
file generated by MIDL compiler. Is there anyone who knows how to fix
this type of problem casued by MIDL compiler?

defined in UFilterService.obj

this may not be 100% helpful, but the midl compiler for all of my generated
c and h files prepends the idl file's name to these globals, for instance
foo.idl would generate

extern const foo_MIDL_TYPE_FORMAT_STRING foo__MIDL_TypeFormatString;
extern const foo_MIDL_PROC_FORMAT_STRING foo__MIDL_ProcFormatString;
extern const foo_MIDL_EXPR_FORMAT_STRING foo__MIDL_ExprFormatString;

i am not sure if there is a cmd line flag to control this or not
