FORCE:[MULTIPLE|UNRESOLVED]

  
## Remarks  
 The /FORCE option tells the linker to create a valid .exe file or DLL even if a symbol is referenced but not defined or is multiply defined.  
  
 The /FORCE option can take an optional argument:  
  
-  Use /FORCE:MULTIPLE to create an output file whether or not LINK finds more than one definition for a symbol.  
  
-  Use /FORCE:UNRESOLVED to create an output file whether or not LINK finds an undefined symbol. /FORCE:UNRESOLVED is ignored if the entry point symbol is unresolved.  
  
 /FORCE with no arguments implies both multiple and unresolved.  
  
 A file created with this option may not run as expected. The linker will not link incrementally when the /FORCE option is specified.  
  
 If a module is compiled with **/clr**, **/FORCE** will not create an image.
