This looks great to me, but I don't know how easy it will be to get this working in our build system. |

Interesting, thanks @serge-sans-paille!
It looks like it builds okay on Azure, there are just a few failures. On TravisCI I see:
Not sure what the exact problem is in Do you expect specific issues @eric-wieser? |

No, but I think I've seen build/distribution-issue-based resistance to switching to c++ before, and am merely expecting someone else to bring those up again. I don't know the details I'm afraid. |

Okay thanks. I think there are likely to be some fiddly details, but given that |

We discussed that in one of the triage meetings and decided modern C++ was acceptable, @seiko2plus wanted it. |

All tests green except cygwin, and there's no error log so I can't track the error correctly, if some knows more than me about it ? |

This is just a technical prototype to measure and discuss the impact and implication of moving to C++ for kernel code generation.

And all green again ;-) |

In the recent developer meeting, we decided to put this in as an experimental enhancement, without actually pushing to migrate the templated code to c++ templates for the 1.22 release. That way we can see if the infrastructure is solid before progressing. |

Thanks @serge-sans-paille |

In SciPy we had a couple of cases where we build a Python extension with C source files but linked against static libraries built from Fortran code. Those should be using the Fortran linker, but this was broken in 1.22.0 by numpygh-19713 (the PR that introduced C++ in NumPy). This fixes a few issues in the `build_ext` command, and documents better what is going on there. Should close SciPy issues 8325 and 15414.
