I'll wait a couple more days for input, then I'll change it to return char
* and take an int * parameter to output the length. If we're switching to
C++, we can update this based on whatever consensus we reach for the
switchover strategy.

What if the structure is defined by a library and a plugin author can't
modify it? What I'm trying to say is that I don't see the benefit of
limiting how a user receives the pointer and the length where nothing

Oh yeah I forgot, isn't a big reason to keep the TS API as C that it allows
you to write programs in Rust? And can proxy-wasm handle it OK if the TS
API is in C++? How about callbacks from Lua scripts being run by the Lua
plugin?

They can continue to write plugins in C, just have to compile with a C++
compiler. I imagine there will be very few, if any changes. Of cou
There are people at Yahoo who have written plugins in straight C, and don't
want to change to C++.

This looks like a string_view to me?
Why don’t we do what we talked about for years now, and stop supporting
compiling plug-ins with C but require C++? Then we can introduce nice things in
ts.h. The old C plugins just have to be changed to compile with C++, and ABI
compatibility within major v
They could make the returned structure a nesting structure in their
structure. Better to make things more convenient for the typical case, not
the unusual case.
