Yes, the identifier 'class' is reserved word in C++, but not in C.
It is unclear to me why the C++ compiler recognizes it as a reserved
word, so I should consult the C++ standard. In any case I will change
the name 'class' to something else in the next version of the package.

You can get rid of this error in the following way:

extern "C" {
...
#define class class1
#include "glpk.h"
#undef class
...
}

Thank you for your bug report!
