C++ in GRASS

[Brett Hoover]

Without any information about the error messages I can't be sure, but it
sounds like you need to wrap function declarations in an extern wrapper so
the names don't get manged.  This would be done in the header file.

Example:

#ifdef _cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endfi
int function1( int var1, int var2 ) ;
char *function2( int var1, int var2 );
...
#ifdef _cplusplus
}
#endif

The problem is, that this would have to be done for all header files which
declares a function you need.

Hope this helps (or at least points you in the right direction)
