Hi,

I am creating a shared library in C but don't know what is the correct implementation of the source codes.

I want to create an API like for example, printHello,

int printHello( char * text );

This printHello function will call another function:

In source file, libprinthello.c,

void printHello( char * text )
{
   printHi();
   printf("%s", text);
}

Since this printHello function is the interface for the user or application:

In header file libprinthello.h,

extern void printHello( char * text);

Then in the source file of the printHi function, printhi.c

void printHi()
{
   printf("Hi\n");
}

Then my problem is, since printHello is the only function that I want to expose in the user, what implementation should I do in printHi function?
