To use a C library in C++ you need to mark C code for the linker. Google
for 'extern "C"'.

Try to wrap enet.h in your project with

extern "C" {

[declarations in enet.h]

}

Sorry, I don't have time to write more, but this should help you use the
library (compiled for C) with C++.
I think you should also be able to compile the library with g++, then
there sould be no problem with linking with C++.
