[in addition to Ed Mulroy's post:]

It seems that the definition of class CTitleBar2 is parsed twice for
the same translation unit. This is an error. "#include guards" are
typically used to solve this problem;


At the top of the file containing the definition of class
CTitleBar2, add the following two lines

#if !defined(CTITLEBAR2_H)
#define CTITLEBAR2_H

, and at the end of this file, add the following line:

#endif


[The symbol defined in the #include guard may vary, but it's a good
idea to make it long and ugly, as all user-defined macro names.]


This will cause the compiler to skip the entire contents of that file
when it is #included for the second time for a translation unit.
