LNK2038 and LNK2005 Error when trying to link a dynamic library that was compiled statically about simd HOT 3 OPEN

After typing everything out I realized: multiple definitions, that might be because of the multiple simd libraries! And indeed when I remove:

find_library(SIMD_BASE_LIBRARY NAMES base)
find_library(AMXBF16_LIBRARY NAMES amxbf16)
find_library(AVX1_LIBRARY NAMES avx1)
find_library(AVX2_LIBRARY NAMES avx2)
find_library(AVX512BF16_LIBRARY NAMES avx512bf16)
find_library(AVX512BW_LIBRARY NAMES avx512bw)
find_library(AVX512VNNI_LIBRARY NAMES avx512vnni)
find_library(NEON_LIBRARY NAMES neon)
find_library(SSE41_LIBRARY NAMES sse41)
find_library(VMX_LIBRARY NAMES vmx)
find_library(VSX_LIBRARY NAMES vsx)

from my CMakeList the program is compiling and linking again! But now I am wondering, even when I just included the Base.lib, I couldn't link properly, how do I properly include those specialized libraries? Is that just not possible in a shared library on windows?

Hi. When you want to use Simd.dll you have to link just it. Simd.dll links the rest libraries inside itself.
During static linking you have to link all libraries.

Hello thank you so much for the quick reply! I do indeed want to link Simd statically to create my own library that exports functions dynamically. The static linking worked with and without the libraries but only when linking my library dynamically in a test program, I received the errors. Do you have any Idea what caused them? I use the newer version installed via vcpgk for x64-Windows
