Template project for C++ about iar-risc-v-gd32v-eval

[felipe-iar]

Hi @sharpgeek,

It is a nice idea.

Even then, right now we do not have any plans of publishing a template for C++ projects from our side. Still, even if the GD32VF103 Firmware Library from GigaDevice was written in C, it comes prepared to play nicely along C++ projects because its implementation uses extern "C" to cope with the name mangling and allow such a mix.

#ifdef __cplusplus
  extern "C" {
#endif 

// <some C code goes here>

#ifdef __cplusplus
  }
#endif

The __cplusplus symbol is generated automatically by the IAR C/C++ compiler when building C++ modules.

Anyway, if you have done some work related to that or have created any cool project with the evaluation board, please feel free to create a new project and then perform a pull request for the contributions folder.

Hi @felipe-iar ,

I created a simple LED blink program using modern C++ features and then performed the PR #17.
