You'll need to wrap the libdevmapper.h include in the usual extern "C"
block like this:

extern "C" {
	#include "libdevmapper.h"
}

But beyond that I don't know of any specific problems and you didn't
describe what actually goes wrong so it's hard to make a more definite
suggestion.

Kind regards,
Bryn.
