Another trick you can do if you can't (or don't want to) modify
'mycfile.h', but don't want to remember to put the __cplusplus guard
around every include instance, is to encapsulate the above code into
another header file, such as 'mycfile.hpp'. Then #include
"mycfile.hpp" instead of mycfile.h file in your C++ code.
