Thanks for the feedback, I'll probably do the rename to CxxWrap.jl tomorrow, so the ship is just about to sail ;) On Friday, March 25, 2016 at 1:18:41 PM UTC+1, Stefan Karpinski wrote: > > The ship may have sailed on giving feedback on this name too ;-) > > Personally, I just think "cxx" is

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++. On Fri, Mar 25, 2016 at 2:17 AM, Jameson wrote: > Cpp sounds fine to me.

Cpp sounds fine to me. That's the only file extension accepted by gnu make (even the expected tool name is CXX): https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Catalogue-of-Rules.html#Catalogue-of-Rules I think ship sailed a long time ago for cpp being an unambiguous abbreviation for the

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. -erik On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 4:52 AM, Bart Janssens wrote: >

2016-03-19 Thread Bart Janssens
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
