What we're trying to explain to you is that C and C++, though
they're closely related, are different languages, and even the
C-like subset of C++ has some quite subtle differences from C.

We're glad to answer questions about C here.  The folks over in
comp.lang.c++ are glad to answer questions about C++, even for
programs that are mostly written in the C-like subset of that
language.

But if you post something here that's mostly C, but using
C++-specific features, then there's always the very real possibility
that some C vs. C++ incompatibility could be (part of) the cause
of the problem you're asking about.  Many of us here are not C++
experts, and we have no idea whether *you're* familiar enough with
the issues that we can safely ignore them and concentrate on the
C-specific parts of your code.

If you can take the time to write your code so it's in pure C,
it will make it easier for us to help you -- which, after all,
is what we're trying to do here.

Or if you want to ask about code that can only be compiled with a
C++ compiler (and it's perfectly ok to do that), comp.lang.c++ is a
better place to ask about it.
