I am mixing C and C++ code. My code is in C++, SQLite is in C.
Just create memory.h:

namespace Mem {
// some functions
}

And create code.cpp:

#include "memory.h"
#include "sqlite3.h"

void Func()
{
Mem::SomeFunc(); // gives the compilation error
}

I see no problems with C++.

Mem is only foward declared, you can redefined it to whatever you want. as
long as you do not redefined it for sqlite.c you should be good.

in sqlite.h it's declared:

struct Mem;

so in your code if you do:

struct Mem { int a;int b;} then your definition will be used for your code.

as sqlite is only using pointer, and has his own definition, I do not see
the problem.

it breaks the ODR, but as I previously said it's used/allocated internally
by sqlite which should never see your definition.

can you explain in more detail what is happening ?

can you make a small reproduceable sample ?

also are you mixing C++ & C, or is your code all in c ?
