why use extern "C"

I see some code like this in iOS project:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

……….//some function,struct


#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
if there is C++ compiler and use C linkage,but if there isn’t C++ compiler then use what?
And what is the reason of using this way in code?

Thanks!
