compile error: unknown type name 'namespace'

Description

Compilation error with µVivion and gcc_arm

The position of the error is different but everytime it is the same problem: a c++ keyword (namespace) is used in a c file.

The problem occures after updating from 5.11.5 to 5.12.4 within Keil. A project working with 5.11.5 cann't be build with 5.12.4.
Tests with gcc_arm show the same problem with 5.12.4 and also with 5.11.5.

I attached a screendump for the gcc test.

Doing the same with 5.11.5 and ARM compiler is working but with 5.12.4 and ARMC6 it shows the same error at the same position as the gcc_arm shows above.

The used projekt is: https://github.com/ATM-HSW/exampleThingSpeakReadField.git

Tested with Python 2.7.16 and 3.7.3

Issue can be closed.

It was finally a problem due to a missing '#ifdef __cplusplus' with very strange error messages. And ARMC5 seems to be more tolerant than ARMC6 and GCC.
