on C part of C++ project (VS10)

Question

I have a C++ VS10 project. I want its part to be pure C. So I will have pure C lib and A C++ file that will have part with C code calling that pure Lib.

• Is it possible? Will I have posebilety to pass data from that C part to C++?

Answer 1

Yes. See how to mix c and c++.

Of course, you could (probably) just compile the c code with a c++ compiler and save yourself a headache.

If you want to link object files compiled by a c compiler, you'll need to use extern "C" { } to declare the functions, so that they aren't name mangled by the C++ compiler.

It really depends on how you want to build your project. If you're more specific, you'll get better answers.
