Why are you using /TP compiler option? From MSDN, you are trying to treat
AutoGen.c as C++ file?
/TC and /TP are "global" variants of /Tc and /Tp. They specify to the compiler
to treat all files named on the command line as C source files (/TC) or C++
source files (/TP), without regard to location on the command line in relation
to the option.

Subject: [edk2] Buidl Error C2496 from AutoGen.c
Hello All,
I am trying to build a optionrom with UDK2010.SR1.UP1 libraries
with /TP as compiler switch
I see error C2496 from AutoGen.c, though i never use these PCD's
when i don't use /TP flag, this error is not seen
c:\udk2010.up1\Build\MdeModule\RELEASE_VS2010\X64\MdeModulePkg\Bus\Pci\Sasdriver\SasDriver\DEBUG\AutoGen.c(65)
: error C2496: '_gPcd_FixedAtBuild_PcdMaximumLinkedListLength' : 'selectany'
can only be applied to data items with external linkage
c:\udk2010.up1\Build\MdeModule\RELEASE_VS2010\X64\MdeModulePkg\Bus\Pci\Sasdriver\SasDriver\DEBUG\AutoGen.c(72)
: error C2496: '_gPcd_FixedAtBuild_PcdMaximumAsciiStringLength' : 'selectany'
can only be applied to data items with external linkage
c:\udk2010.up1\Build\MdeModule\RELEASE_VS2010\X64\MdeModulePkg\Bus\Pci\Sasdriver\SasDriver\DEBUG\AutoGen.c(79)
: error C2496: '_gPcd_FixedAtBuild_PcdMaximumUnicodeStringLength' :
'selectany' can only be applied to data items with external linkage
I am using /TP(for convenience of declaring varaibles) and also some extern "C"
code
Please help me know how to overcome this error
Thanks
Ranga
