Yes. If using the TI compiler, I recommend reading the below wiki article:
processors.wiki.ti.com/.../C++_Support_in_TI_Compilers

Thanks

Thank you Ki-Soo Lee, the wiki link is helpful.

I am trying to modify the usb_dev_serial.c to a c++ project, it seems like the compiler doesn't like the void * that is used in the project. I have changed the usb_dev_serial to a .cpp extension and have enveloped necessary includes and prototypes/definitions using extern "C" as the wiki link describes. As a result, I get the following error:

error #169: argument of type "void *" is incompatible with parameter of type "tLineCoding *"

Is it impossible to use this kind of declaration using c++ in code composer?

Is there a way I can get around this error?

Fixed the issue by properly typecasting the variables with (tLineCoding *)
