Hello there,

I'm sure I must be doing something stupid here but I can't figure out
what. The following program (a libcref example):-

#include <sys/timeb.h>

main()
{
	struct timeb t;
	ftime(&t);

	return 0;
}

compiles fine as a C program. I want to use ftime() in my C++ programs
though and this causes a problem. When the above is compiled as C++, I
get

C:\MATCLASS>gcc -Wall test.cc -lgpp -lm
test.cc(.text+10): undefined reference to `ftime(timeb *)'

ar shows me that ftime.o is in libc.a. I've tried linking with -lc
explicitly but this doesn't seem to work either. Have I missed something
obvious? I'm newish to C++.

Many thanks in advance.
