I'm working on a mixed C and C++ project, in particular I'm integrating a third party C-language library to our C++ base code. I wrote a couple of failing test cases, generated mocks with CMocks, generated runner with Unity and compiled: g++ for C++, gcc for C. Linking failed, whether I compile runner with gcc or g++.
The problem was on the runner generation process, which gets the headers included in my C++ file into the runner, so linker can't find proper associations.
I solved the issue adding a new option into generate runner script, "externcincludes", that allow to add the
extern "C" { }around unity and cmock header files, then compile runner with g++.
