+Subject: [PATCH] CMakeLists.txt: allow building without a C++ compiler
+
+Define hiredis as a C project (and use a single PROJECT statement) to
+avoid the following build failure if a C++ compiler is not found:
+
+CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (PROJECT):
+ The CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:
+
+ /srv/storage/autobuild/run/instance-1/output-1/host/bin/arm-linux-g++
+
+ is not a full path to an existing compiler tool.
+
+ Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment
+ variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path
+ to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.
+
+The only cpp source file is examples/example-qt.cpp which is never
+compiled with cmake buildsystem. This file is compiled only with the
+Makefile buildsystem so perhaps it should be removed. If it is added to
+the cmake buildsystem, a call to enable_language(CXX) will have to be
+added.
+
+Fixes:
