Can't put math.h in a namespace

I'm doing some cross platform development, and I ran across another weird problem..

namespace Math 
{
    #include <math.h>
}

This is what I am trying to do. It works fine on iOS, but on Android everything inside math.h is not a member of Math when I try to compile it. After some trial an error I found out that the ndk doesn't put the stuff in math.h in the namespace Math, as the functions do exist without the Math:: prefix. The big problem is that some functions in math.h clash with my own convenience functions. How can I fix this?

What about <cmath>? it puts everything in std:: (in C++11).

You really shouldn't try to put any system headers into a different namespace. The solution, as painful as it may be at this point in development, is to put all of your code into its own namespace.

Probably something else includes math.h earlier in the preprocessor "pipeline". C includes check whether the sane include has been included earlier. In this case, the check #ifndef MATH_H resulted in excluding the whole file. Try placing your include with the namespace at the beginning of your .c files.

Don't put your convenience functions in the global namespace.

Don't try to wrap math.h in a namespace.

There, all’OK now.

Cheers & hth.,
