Compiling project that contains cpp and c files

Question

I'm working on c++ project. One of my project files has extension c. Will compiler compile whole project using c++ or it will compile c++ files an c file separately and then link them somehow?

my c file contains code:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

How compiler will deal with c file in case I set Compile as C++ Code(/TP) ?

From MSDN, looks like the 2nd option (.cpp as c++, .c as c). However, if you force with command line option, then it will follow the command line option. Note the case sensitivity of c and p after -T, it could mean ALL files or just the following file as described here.
