remove the quote before the lambda expression. you want the lambda
expression to be evaluated, because it returns an anonymous function.

the problem may be that:               (kbd "M-o")
does not return the "expected" value:  [239]

put the expression into *scratch* and type `C-j' after the close-paren
to see for yourself.  fwiw, on my computer i see [134217839].  you can
try "\M-o" instead of "M-o" (note backslash).

c-mode-base-map
  Variable: Keymap shared by all CC Mode related modes.

c++-mode-map
  Variable: Keymap used in c++-mode buffers.

c-mode-map
  Variable: Keymap used in c-mode buffers.

The code from .emacs:

(add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook
	  '(lambda () (define-key c-mode-map (kbd "M-o") 'kpox-switch-h-cpp))
	  )

After I open .CPP file kpox-switch-h-cpp appears in c-mode-map bindings (I checked c-mode-map variable). But pressing M-o doesnt call kpox-switch-h-cpp. An old function from global binding is called (set-face or something similar).

Please advise me what is the problem and how to solve it.

This form is useless. You don't need to bind this key definition to this hook.

Just use the (define-key ..) stuff and that *should* work.

`c-mode-map' isn't defined until cc-mode is loaded, putting just the
define-key in .emacs will thow an error.

The problem is as someone pointed out that he should use
`c-mode-base-map' instead of `c-mode-map'.

Thank you guys!
So, the correct code is (I've tested and it works):

(add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook
	  '(lambda () (define-key c-mode-base-map (kbd "M-o") 'kpox-switch-h-cpp))
	  )

Removing this quote will improve your karma, will save 1 byte, and won't
hurt anything else.

Just one small point:  The above code "adds" the binding to the key map
every time you open a CC Mode buffer.  You really only need to add the
key binding once: use CC Mode's initialization hook instead:

(add-hook 'c-initialization-hook
        '(lambda () (define-key c-mode-base-map (kbd "M-o") 'kpox-switch-h-cpp)))

Email: aacm@muuc.dee; to decode, wherever there is a repeated letter
(like "aa"), remove half of them (leaving, say, "a").

Same problem of bad karma.
