No, because you've neglected to prevent C++ name mangling of the
function name. You need to declare it with "C" linkage.

More generally, the backend is a C engine not a C++ engine, and
you're likely to come to serious grief if you insist on trying to
use C++ libraries (like iostream) in a dynamic library. I think
you'd be a lot better off to use gcc not g++ ...
