As an ANSI C++ rule, anything inside the

extern "C"
{
    // insert stuff here
};

is to be saved in a format C can read. You are free to use C++ classes,
templates, etc. in this block, but your C code cannot access them without an
exact name. Also, function overloading will not work because extern "C" tells
C++ not to use the name__Fdata format for function names, which is how
overloading works.

Otherwise, you can rename all .c files to .cpp and see what happens. Keep a list
of the ones you change though. C++ is not as forgiving as C.
