Thanks for the feedback, I'll probably do the rename to CxxWrap.jl
tomorrow, so the ship is just about to sail ;)

The ship may have sailed on giving feedback on this name too ;-)
Personally, I just think "cxx" is cooler that "cpp". Add that to being more
correct, and it's a winner for me as an extension for C++.

Cpp sounds fine to me. That's the only file extension accepted by gnu make
(even the expected tool name is CXX):

I like the sound of CxxWrap.jl. I was reluctant to use Cxx, to avoid giving
the impression there is a dependency on Cxx.jl, but in the future I may
actually use Cxx.jl to replace the current ccall usage, so then that is no
longer an objection.
I'll give it a few more days and then proceed with
I would second Erik, CXX seems to be the standard way of referring to C++
(e.g. in makefiles), and it would be consistent with Cxx.jl.
Also, maybe the shorter "CxxWrap.jl"? Sounds a tiny bit better to me ("wrap
C++ code in Julia") whereas CxxWrapper could be interpreted as "wrapper
around
The abbreviation "cpp" often stands for "C pre-processor". If you call
"cpp" on the command line, you'll get the preprocessor; only c++ or
cxx might get the C++ compiler.
The name "CxxWrapper" might thus be better.

It's your choice. Just go ahead!
I am waiting for this nice package to be registered.

Hi,
I'd like to register the CppWrapper package:
https://github.com/barche/CppWrapper
At the very least, I'll have to rename the github repo to CppWrapper.jl,
but while I'm at it I'd like to ask if there are any suggestions for a
better name? The package is meant to "wrap" a C++ library in a
