I want to write conformance tests for gdiplus and that requires the use of c++. Even if I were to focus on the gdi+ flat api, the windows SDK headers for that have c++ code in them, also eventually when the gdi+ c++ wrappers are written on top of the flat api then we will need to be able to compile c++ in the wine environment. What do I have to do to be able to write these tests?
I don't see any need to use C++ for that. All the exported APIs are callable from C code, and the corresponding headers are C compatible too.

Well the Platform SDK headers use C++. From gdiplus.h: ... namespace DllExports { #include "GdiplusFlat.h" }; ... And if you try to just include GdiplusFlat.h (i.e . only using the gdi+ flat api), you have to include GdiplusGpStubs.h. From GdiplusGpStubs.h: ... class GpBrush {}; class GpTexture : public GpBrush {}; ... So it would be impossible to compile any conformance test for gdi+ in C using the platform sdk headers. In my eyes it seems that there are 2 options: edit the platform sdk headers so that they are compatible with C code (change "class GpFoo {};" to "typedef void GpFoo") or use g++ to compile. Are you suggesting the former over the latter? -Evan Stade
