C++_CALLS_C\ C++ Main Program Calls C Functions {#c_calls_c-c-main-program-calls-c-functions align=”center”} ==================================
C++_CALLS_C is a directory of C++ programs which illustrates how a C++ program can call a C function.
For this example, the KRONROD package is used. Note that the KRONROD library is available in C++ and in C, so this example is not created out of necessity (the C++ main program could have simply called the C++ version of KRONROD). Instead, it is intended as an example of how to do this when you have to (you don’t have a C++ version of the routines you want to use.)
When calling a C function from a C++ function, there are some simple things that may be enough to guarantee success.
the C++ code should declare interfaces to the C functions using the “extern C” qualifier, as in
extern "C"
{
void kronrod ( int n, double eps, double x[], double w1[], double w2[] );
void timestamp ( );
}

C++_CALLS_C is available in a C++ version and a FORTRAN77 version and a FORTRAN90 version and a MATLAB version.
C++_CALLS_F77, C++ programs which call a FORTRAN77 subroutine.
C++_CALLS_F90, C++ programs which call a FORTRAN90 subroutine.
KRONROD, a C library which can compute a Gauss and Gauss-Kronrod pair of quadrature rules of arbitrary order, by Robert Piessens, Maria Branders.
KRONROD, a C++ library which can compute a Gauss and Gauss-Kronrod pair of quadrature rules of arbitrary order, by Robert Piessens, Maria Branders.
MIXED, C++ programs which call a function written in another programming language.
KRONROD is the C source code for the KRONROD library. It should be essentially unchanged from the standard version.
KRONROD_PRB is the C++ source code for the main program. Some changes have been made from the standard version in order to adjust for the fact that we are calling a FORTRAN77 subroutine.
You can go up one level to the C++ source codes.
