Well, I was thinking of: #ifdef __cplusplus class PyAutoThreadState { PyAutoThreadState() {state = PyAutoThreadState_Ensure();} ~PyAutoThreadState() {PyAutoThreadState_Restore(state);} PyAutoThreadState_State state; } #endif Meaning the C level API is always there, but a C++ compiler on any platform should allow extension authors to say: void MyCppFunc(void) { PyAutoThreadState state; } And the rest happens by magic.
