-Subject: [PATCH] cmake: set the project language
-
-By default, CMake sets C and C++ as languages used by the project.
-This makes the configuration failed if no C++ compiler is found.
-
-Since libwesockets in written in pure C, no C++, there is no reason to
-disable it when the toolchain has no C++ support.
-
-This patch just make the CMake code reflecting the real status of the
-project with regard to the languages used.
