.. code-block:: python

def stdcpp_library(conanfile)

Returns the corresponding C++ standard library to link with based on the settings of the given conanfile. For instance, it may return ``c++`` for ``compiler.libcxx=libc++``,
and it may return ``stdc++`` for ``compiler.libcxx=libstdc++`` or ``compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11``. Returns ``None`` if there is no C++ standard library
need to be linked. Usually, this is required to populate ``self.cpp_info.system_libs`` for C++ libraries with plain C API, therefore such libraries might be
safely used in pure C projects (or in general, non-C++ projects capable of using C API, such as written in Objective-C, Fortran, etc.).

Parameters:
- **conanfile** (Required): ConanFile instance. Usually ``self``.
