[chuck-users] C function integration problem into a chugin

[Julien Saint-Martin]

Hi again,

I solved the problem. In fact it is not related to chuck or chugin but more
related to C and C++ (and my poor knowledge of this last one).

When including C function in a C++ project .h files must be modified like
this to declare prototypes:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

// Your C prototypes

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif


I understand this might be obvious for many of you, so I apologize for the
noise on the mailing list.

Have fun,

Ju
