Using getusershell() function in C++

Hi,
         I am writing a program in DEC C++ that needs to scan the
user shells file (/etc/shells). There is a function available,
getusershell() that can do that. However this function is defined in
standard C library and C++ does not link it in. Is there any way to use C
objects in DEC C++? Is this function defined somewhere else so it can be
used with C++?.

The only thing I can do now is write my own getusershell()...

Thanks.
