In general, you can't.
You can provide a procedural interface instead,
and declare it in a header file like this:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
void some_function(int, char*, double); // or whatever
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

This can then be included from both C and C++.

Ya i can Do that But There are Many Class and there are many
Functions....so Writting the Wrapper For Each is Not Possible..
so is there any Alternative method or any Buit-in COde Genarator S/w
that can Do this Task!!
Thanks For the Reply ! waiting ahead For Reply!!

If this is the case why on earth are you trying to do this from C?
Rename your .c files to .cpp and compile them as C++, why don't you?

Thanks For Reply i MIght have Done that Problem i am Doing Something
in PreDefined Frame-Work Which is Written in C and i got a Third Party
Library which is in C++ ,i am Not Getting HOw to Hormonize these
two ... [ ]
since i cannt Change the Framework as well i cannt do anythig in Third
Party Lib.......

In that case you will have to isolate the code that accesses the 3rd
party library into a C++ module and provide a procedural interface
to that module that's callable from C using the technique I described
before.

I don't think I'm such a weirdo, but this seriously hurts my eyes.
Please post in standard English, which is also a quite an efficient
way to get you more helpful responses

I'm not familiar with the compiler you are using (or maybe I
am---I don't know what compiler you are using), but the text of
the error message seems very, very clear. The author of this
file, for whatever reasons, did *not* want his header processed
by a C compiler. Which probably means that you'll have to
either give up using the library, or wrap it in an additional C
layer which can be called from C++.

Note that the error message says "#error". That sounds like the
compiler has encountered an #error preprocessor directive.
Perhaps something like:

#ifndef __cplusplus
#error eh.h is only for C++
#endif

You could always try to invoke the C compiler with something
like -D__cplusplus or /D__cplusplus, but this is undefined
behavior, and of course, if the original author didn't want the
file compiled with a C compiler, there is probably a reason.

If you compile with C, there is no way that you're be able to
instantiate a C++ class that is not a POD. If you compile with
C, there's no way you can do anything not allowed in C. (Also,
if you compile with C, this forum really isn't the appropriate
place to post your question. comp.lang.c would be more
appropriate, but I can just imagine the response you'll get
there.)
