How to detect if C code (which needs 'extern C') is compiled in C++

The common practice is not to demand client code wraps your header in extern "C", but to do so conditionally yourself. For instance:
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
// Header content
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
That way client code is automatically correct without doing anything beyond including the header.
