4 responses since that post. And all four have listed "Plain old ordinary C" as something they want supported. Classic. Now it's in front of every other option.
Supporting C is step one to supporting Java too. So that's cool. And also Python. And Swift. And Rust. And basically everything. So I've gone and done a thing to my branch of Binderoo - I now generate C function wrappers alongside the C++ function wrappers.
Environments that can support C++ calling conventions will absolutely want to stick to them, especially on x64 as the default calling conventions use registers extensively rather than pushing everything to the stack. And environments that don't support those conventions can stick to the C function pointer and be merry.
I'll need to clean up my minimal C API and work on generating code for those languages before I can say "They're supported!" but at the very least the groundwork is there.
