Thank you. So there shouldn't be any big problems writing a glue then, as long as I do extern "C" in the correct places and try to ensure that no exceptions are left unhandled...

All #include's of pike header files must be within extern "C" { };. C++ doesn't differ between the tag name space and the ordinary name space. This makes code like

struct lex { char *pos; char *end; INT32 current_line; INT32 pragmas; struct pike_string *current_file; int (*current_lexer)(YYSTYPE *); };

extern struct lex lex;

not work, unless C++ has been fixed since I looked at it last.

AFAIK, there are no such modules right now.

I have written a wrapper for a C++ library. The easiest way was to just write it and stop worrying about it. No interface library is needed.

The easiest way to interface with a C++ library, might be to make a glue library which has a plain C interface, and then use that from a C module.
