I think i should have added that the shared library itself is object oriented. If only functions can be "linked", this won't work, right?

If you know the name the linker generates you can access any symbol. A good practice is having a function using C calling conventions which returns a pointer to a structure which contains objects or something.

Well, I already do that - to access the library via Java. The C++ library I'm writing is nothing but a stub using the third party library (which I am not able to alter).
