hi, We have written cunit code for testing some APIs. defination of those APIs are in c++ and .so library is created of them. when I compile my cunit code it gets compiled successfully but while liking it gives undefined reference to symbol. can anyone help me in this matter.
Regards Sumit Shrivastava

C++ mangles the symbols so it can enforce function argument type matching at linking time. You will need to find out how they are mangled and use those same names in C. Or change the C++ programs to define the functions as special C type.

the problem is the name mangling of the C++ compiler:
a extern "C" declaration around the include of C headers should resolve the problem:
extern "C" { #include }
