This is essentially impossible to do in a way that would preserve
the character of the C++ code. That is, if you wanted to further
edit the translated code, or even just read it, you would find it
cryptic and difficult. (I speak here of C++ in its full generality.
Limited subsets of C++ which avoid its best features will translate
more readily.)

Edison Design Group sells a compiler which translates C++ into C,
so that might be a starting point. The same caveats apply.
