[Bf-committers] BIH - mixing C and C++

[Yves Poissant]

I resolved that issue. But to answer your question regarding C++ construct: 
yes and no. I mean the file is not object oriented. There are no classes for 
instance. But there are use of const and the variable declarations are 
interspersed in the code and that sort of C++ thing that the C compiler 
won't accept (although there may be some flags I could set but right now, 
the issue is solved).
