Following code fails to compile , ... declaration of C function 'int test()'
conflicts with previous declaration 'int test(int*)'...

However when i place the function prototypes in the cpp file, it compiles
and links.

Any idea?


********************
gcc f1.cpp -lstdcxx

--- file: F1.cpp ---------------
#include "f1.hpp"

int test()
{
  return 1;
}

int test(int *i)
{
  *i++;
  return *i;
}

int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
  int i;
  test();
  i=test(&i);
  return 0;
}

--- file F1.hpp -----------------

#ifndef _F1_HPP
#define _F1_HPP

#ifdef __cplusplus
   extern "C" {
#endif


int test(int *i);
int test(void);
int main(int argc,char **argv);

#ifdef __cplusplus
   }
#endif

#endif
