After a good night sleep, I also came to the same conclussion.
Thanks! :-)
I never had to mix C and C++ before so I'm still strugling a bit but I'm
getting there.
Now, on a more general note, I do would like to make the case to make
sure libopencm3 is (re)writen in a C++ compatible format.
After all, concidering the popularity of the arduino platform, there is
a lot of code for arduino for all kinds of devices. As said, the mfrc32
library I use is a port of a arduino C++ class to libopencm3.
it is not that difficult to simply "translate" the gpio, SPI or UART
calls from wiring into their libopencm3 equivalents, but if you need to
start writing "wrapper"-code to go from C++ to C -as for cdcacm- it does
make things (unnecessairy) complex.
After all, we are all to gain from having an as-smooth-as-possible path
to translate the (much larger) collection of arduino driver so we can
use them on libopencm3.
