27 | /*
|

28 | * Including system's headers inside `extern "C" { ... }` is not safe, as system
|
---|
29 | * headers may have C++ code in them, and C++ code inside extern "C"
|
---|
30 | * leads to syntactically incorrect code.
|
---|
31 | *
|
---|
32 | * This is because putting code inside extern "C" won't make __cplusplus define
|
---|
33 | * go away, that is, the system header being included thinks is free to use C++
|
---|
34 | * as it sees fits.
|
---|
35 | *
|
---|
36 | * Including non-system headers inside extern "C" is not safe either, because
|
---|
37 | * non-system headers end up including system headers, hence fall in the above
|
---|
38 | * case too.
|
---|
39 | *
|
---|
40 | * Conclusion, includes inside extern "C" is simply not portable.
|
---|
41 | *
|
---|
42 | *
|
---|
43 | * This header helps surface these issues.
