Does this project support C++?

[ZupeiNie]

Hi, thank you for your great work on this project!
I would like to ask whether this project currently supports C++ or if there are any plans to add C++ support in the future.
Thanks in advance!

Hi @ZupeiNie - I'm not formally a maintainer of this project; however, I am quite sure no work on C++ support is occurring/planned.

However, I have added other language outputs to a very similar compiler, and it is fairly trivial, so my suggestion is that you look to extend it yourself.

The templates for C and Verilog are in the rvc directory.

Take a look at rvc/rtecTemplate.go and rvc/rtecTemplateFunctions.go as a start. You can duplicate and then edit as required.

From memory, getting the compiler to see and make use of your new templates might be a little fiddly - sing out if you need a hand with that!

Hi @AlexBaird - Thanks a lot for clarifying! I’m planning to try adding C++ support myself, if there is any problem with this process, I may send an email to request help, thank you very much!
