If you know how your C++ compiler mangles functions inside
namespaces, you should be able to hack something together using
pragma mangle. I'm not sure how nice it can be, ideally a UDA
(user defined attribute) should be enough, but I've never used
them myself so I don't know if this is possible:
@Cpp("namespace") void foo(int x);
or even:
@Cpp("namespace")
{
void foo();
void bar();
}
where @Cpp applies extern(C++) and pragma(mangle,
"correctlymangledname"). Anyone knows if this can be done?
