Completely fair, but then don't announce what is a C library, as being a C++ one, just because it uses iostream on the examples.

Tell it is a C library, and announce C++ support when it is actually available.

Yeah, I agree that it should be advertised differently, stressing the obvious WIP aspect. I guess the idea is just to show that the seed for a proper C/C++ API is there, and ready to be developed further for whenever a customer requires it. Out of curiosity, what is your use case?

I was only making the point that many of us in C++ community don't appreciate libraries making the minimum effort, only because C89 is a C++ subset.

It is like shipping JavaScript libraries, and then letting Typescript users having to create .d.ts files by themselves.

In my case, I only care about GPGPU, HLSL and CUDA cover that.
