C library in C++


I need help on the following issue.
I am building a C++ application in Qt which also needs another static library
libxxx.a (i'm generalising).
The trouble is when I link, g++ finds 'undefined reference' for
every function called from that static library.
I think the problem lies in the fact that the static library is written in C
and my own code is in C++.


My linking lines are (I've tried several):
g++ -L$QTDIR/lib ... libxxx.a -lqt -lm
g++ -L$QTDIR/lib -L. ... -lqt -Wl,-Bstatic -lxxx -lm
g++ -L$QTDIR/lib -L. ... -lqt -Wl,-Bstatic libxxx.a -lm

all yield the same linking errors

The static library works perfectly well in any C app.
Is there any way to convert it to C++?
Is there any way out?
Another thing, I don't have the source code to the library, so I can't modify that and rebuild it.
