I have a program that looks something like this:

class monster
    {
    int hitpoints;
    void *(ai)();
    };

void monster_ai_attack()
    {
    // kill the player
    if(monster_is_hit())
        --hitpoints;
    }

void main()
    {
    monster gremlin;
    gremlin.ai = monster_ai_attack;
    }

The problem is that the ai cannot access members of the class I assigned it
too.  (hitpoints).
Any suggestions?

Also, using C++, is there a reason to use a makefile, instead of a buch of
headers leading to one .CPP file?
