Hello;

Pre-std c++, I used to have things like this
class Foo {
...
   static int compare(const void*, const void*);
...
};

So that I could pass them to qsort.

Now my compiler warns me that qsort should take an extern "C"
int(*)(const void *, const void*) which I would tend to agree with.

So - should I be able to
class Foo {
...
   static "C" int compare(...)
...
};

And while I know I should not use qsort :-) should something like this
work?

Thanks
sdg
