> I noticed this thing because I compiled those sources with a more robust syntax check, by using C++ rather that plain C. At pratical level, nothing changed, except for the .h files that required to use the extern "C" keyword. I was wondering if you could evaulate the chance to add this feature to the include files.
> It could be done directly by using some #ifdef/#endif, or perhaps by doing something like this, somewhere in a common file:
>
> #ifdef __cplusplus
> #define FFMPEG_EXTERN_C_BEGIN extern "C" {
> #define FFMPEG_EXTERN_C_END   }
> #else
> #define FFMPEG_EXTERN_C_BEGIN
> #define FFMPEG_EXTERN_C_END
> #endif

In addition to what was said:
We cannot commit above because we would not test it
and we cannot guarantee that it will always work: We
provide C headers, if you want to use them in a C++
project, it is your responsibility to make sure it works,
not ours.
