 |
|
I have an existing C++ library . Now i am another application using
this C++ lib.
The problem here is i want to call C++ fn. from C file .I cannot use
extern "C"declaration for that fn. because it is compiled using a g++.
tobeused.cc
writtenincpp(int i ,char c)
{
}
Since i have been provided with .o's and the header files ,i can change
only function prototypes and not function declaration.
What should i do ?
regards,
ankit |

You need to write a "glue" function to go between. It should be
compiled as C++, with an extern "C" attribute so that it can be
called from your C code. |
