Glad you found a solution, but I would like to add some things:
- This has nothing to do with g++, any other C++ compiler would have given
you the same errors.
- Even though you don't strictly need it, you could have included "a.h"
into "a.cpp". The compiler then would have told you that the two
declarations conflict!
- You could also have added the extern "C" to the definitions in the .cpp
file.
- There is no need for an "extern" in front of a function declaration, you
only need to declare variables.
Removing the extern "C" is ok though, unless you want to make those files
usable in C. Then, you need to supply them to the C++ compiler and exclude
them for the C compiler:
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"{
#endif
/* declarations here */
#ifdef __cplusplus
} // extern "C"
#endif
