I am not looking at the API docs at the moment, but I would expect that
it would work but would probably require a significant bit of casting
fu to deal with the c++ pointers and maybe some #defines to deal
with C++ name mangling, ie:

00000000 T dqzport_CommunicateInit__FPi
dfxportInit.o:
00000000 a dqzportInit.cpp
00000000 T dqzportInit__FPPiPciP6CSlout
         U dqzport_CommunicateInit__FPi

Given the grief that i have experienced attempting to get c and c++ to
play nicely together, i'd be choosing to communicate via some other
means.

My interoperability issues may be tied to the fact that i am stuck with
dealing with some legacy c++ libs that where written with g++2 and it
may all be solved and work transparently when using gcc4/g++4, i dont
really know because i dont get to use it for our application.

No prob, the public variable idea certainly seems to be appropriate
given that perspective. :-)
