C++ DLL and C main program

[Toondalis]

I am now extending a Program that is written in C thru DLL. The Main
program will call functions in my DLL . The problem is that i wanted
to write my extenstion in C++ instead of C , How can it be done?

thanks

That's simple. You just encapsulate the block with API functions in an "
extern "C" { ... } " block. :-)

Or declare only the APIs as having C linkage:

extern "C" void __declspec(dlle xport) MyGreatAPIFunct ion( void*
argument ) {
// do C++ stuff
}

I hope that helps! :-)
