The other answers are correct, but a complete "boilerplate" example will probably help. The canonical method for including C code in C and/or C++ projects is as follows:
//
// C_library.h
//
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
//
// ... prototypes for C_library go here ...
//
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
-
//
// C_library.c
//
#include "C_library.h"
//
// ... implementations for C_library go here ...
//
-
//
// C++_code.cpp
//
#include "C_library.h"
#include "C++_code.h"
//
// ... C++_code implementation here may call C functions in C_library.c ...
//
Note: the above also applies to calling C code from Objective-C++.
