LNK2022 metadata operation: Inconsistent layout information in duplicated types

Question

I\'m having a new-to-me linker error in a project I\'m working with:

1>MSVCMRTD.lib(locale0_implib.obj) : error LNK2022: metadata operation failed (801311         


        

Answer 1

The fix for me was to set Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Code Generation -> Struct Member Alignment -> 16 Bytes (/Zp16)
