Answer 1

If the C++ library is written which can be compiled with C compiler with slight editting (such as changing bool to int, false to 0 and true to 1 etc), then that can be done.

But not all C++ code can be wrapped in C. Template is one feature in C++ that cannot be wrapped, or its nearly impossible.
