Yes. It seems to be a mixture of C and C++ and although I only looked
at a couple of files I didn't see anything that really needed C++
features.
For portability I'd stick to C if C++ isn't really required.
But C++ gives at least 2 benefits for developer:
1. Strict type checking
2. It is allow to write env->FindClass("java/lang/Object") instead of
(*env)->FindClass(env, "java/lang/Object") :)
Windows version also uses GDI+ which is class library.
So I vote for C++...
