c++ calling main() function

i just finished a project for a c++ class that i wrote at home on my computer, compiled with gcc. when i brought the code into school it would not compile, it would complain that cannot call main() function. at school we use ancient borland c++ from 1995. anyway my program has 20 different functions, and each one hasa menu to start the program over, some with switch structure, and others with else if, everyone calls the main function when it is started over, so my question is, which is right? in c++ should you be able to call the main function from other functions? or is this a lax in conformity with gcc?

---

i simply created a new function identical to main() and called that when i need to start over.
