+The normal C \s-1API\s0 should work fine when used from \*(C+: both ev.h and the
+libev sources can be compiled as \*(C+. Therefore, code that uses the C \s-1API\s0
+will work fine.
+.PP
+Proper exception specifications might have to be added to callbacks passed
+to libev: exceptions may be thrown only from watcher callbacks, all
+other callbacks (allocator, syserr, loop acquire/release and periodioc
+reschedule callbacks) must not throw exceptions, and might need a \f(CW\*(C`throw
+()\*(C'\fR specification. If you have code that needs to be compiled as both C

+Throwing exceptions in watcher callbacks is only supported if libev itself
+is compiled with a \*(C+ compiler or your C and \*(C+ environments allow
+throwing exceptions through C libraries (most do).

 Libev comes with some simplistic wrapper classes for \*(C+ that mainly allow
 you to use some convenience methods to start/stop watchers and also change
 the callback model to a model using method callbacks on objects.
