I would like to wrap a C library within a C++ class. For my C++ class I also would like to have the same declaration used by these C function: is it possible to do that?
If for example I have the case below how would it be possible to distinguish the C-function from the C++ one? I would like to call the C one off course.
extern int my_foo( int val ); //
class MyClass{
public:
int my_foo( int val ){
// what to write here to use
// the C functions?
// If I call my_foo(val) it will call
// the class function not the global one
}
}
Use the scope resolution operator ::
:
int my_foo( int val ){
// Call the global function 'my_foo'
return ::my_foo(val);
}
