You can freely mix C and C++ files in the project. Place C header files where you place other header files, and place C files where you place your C++ files, or create separate directories.

It all is controlled through #include (sigh… I cannot believe it, such an archaic technique in XXI century!) anyway, so just take care of proper include paths and makes sure C and C++ are added to the project, make file and the like — further detail depend on your platform, C/C++ development system and environment.

You can directly add them to your MFC solution and use the necessary C functions.

Say suppose you are having Function_1() in C1.h and its definition in C1.c and if you want to use this in MyView.cpp (a cpp in your MFC app)
1. then add C1.h and C1.c to your MFC solution and
2. #include C1.h in MyView.cpp and
3. use Function_1() in necessary MyView member function

Hope I am clear to you!!!

Solution 3

add a library project to your solution
include the files to that project
compile all
access the h files in your code
compile and link all
