It’s an alternative to the low level C APIs. Use either as you like, there’s likely some overhead with the abstraction layers, but likely it’s worth it for the simplicity in many cases. You’ll see most of our in-core plugins use the low level C APIs, because the authors cares about performance, or dislike STL :). There are no plans of eliminating one API in favor of the other, they are complimentary. Cheers, — leif
