How to use

C++ Smart Contracts

To write a C++ smart contract that runs in a Canister, you do not use icpp-candid directly, but you install icpp-pro, which is a full-blown C++ Canister Development Kit.

Simply install & Get Started !

C++ Rich Clients

If you want to use the C++ Candid Library in your Rich Client, you need to include it in your application and then compile it to a native executable.

We already do this ourselves as part of icpp-pro to enable interactive debugging with VS Code, as described here.

The command we use is:

icpp build-native

Which uses the Clang++ compiler to create a native debug executable named mockic.exe
