Calling a C++ library with ORA_FFI?

Hi,

We are having problems using a shared library containing C++ objects from ORA_FFI on HP-UX 11.0. We compiled with aCC.

The only thing Oracle can tell me is a registered bug 516590:
@ This is not a bug. Interfacing foreign functions via the ORA_FFI
@ builtin package is only supported toward languages complying with
@ the C or Pascal calling standards (see page 6-2 of the OPB
@ documentation). C++ does not fall in such category.

I guess this means we won't succeed. Is there anyone out there using the same configuration?
We succeeded in working with a shared library with only ANSI-C objects. So what could be the difference?

Thanks for any suggestions,
