Sorry, I totally missed this one. I'll take a look as soon as I have time and add a unit test. Or, if you want to send a pull request :)

Hi there. Had a bit of a chance to look into this today, and appears that this is non-trivial, since FBTweakValue() is actually implemented using _Generic(). However, I notice the inclusion of extern "C" {..., so I'm a bit confused as to whether or not this was expected to work or not.

It seems to me that getting this to work with ObjC++ would require reimplementing FBTweakValue() to use C++ constructs rather than _Generic(). In which case, considering it's possible to just expose Tweaks values from another non-C++ compilation unit, I would say this isn't worthwhile. In which case, perhaps it would be better to just go with:

#ifdef __cplusplus
#error C++ unsupported error, etc... However, you can expose values from blah, blah, blah helpful advice
#endif

...but I'd be interested to know if this was intended to work first.

I did a quick PR if you think it's ok to just go with the build error "solution".
