Fatal Error C1308

linking assemblies is not supported

A .netmodule is allowed as input to the linker, but an assembly is not. This error can be generated when an attempt is made to link an assembly compiled with /clr:safe.

For more information, see .netmodule Files as Linker Input.

The following sample generates C1308:

// C1308.cpp
// compile with: /clr:safe /LD
public ref class MyClass {
public:
   int i;
};

and then,

// C1308b.cpp
// compile with: /clr /link C1308b.obj C1308.dll
// C1308 expected
#using "C1308.dll"
int main() {
   MyClass ^ my = gcnew MyClass();
}
