[LAD] again [ot] programming c++ problem (functions adresses)

Hi! Sorry to bother again. But I have the following problem I can't solve. I need to wrap some readline-code in my c++-class. Readline has some function-pointers you can set to a function you wrote yourself. So I did. The sinature of my function ALMOST matches that expected by readline, but it complains about the class part of my signature: my function: char** (Midish_rl::*)(const char*, int, int); Readline expects: char8* (*)(const char*, int, int); I tired writing a wrapper function, but for that I need some object, I just tried: char** wrapper(const char *text, int start, int end) { return my_ui.real_function(text,start,end); } The code is divided between a few files, so I couldn't just a a global object 'my_ui', which was known at all times. Does anyone have an idea how to solve it? Note: I don't want to use any external class-libraries, which might perform the task, because of dependencies. Anyway, there are no standard lib, that do that, not that I'm aware of at least.
