Hello Steven,
I created a very basic tutorial a bit back for just this sort of 
quandary. It might be a bit dated, but I believe at least a third of it 
applies to what you're looking to do. (Skip to the C++ part)

As you see, you don't export your lisp functions per say, but rather 
give function calls to "cl_safe_eval" and let it call your code. And the 
initialization call is "cl_boot".

Hope this helps!
