C++ support for AOCL

Does the OpenCL SDK support C++? If so, what are the limitations? The prorgramming guide isn't quite clear on C++ support (at least, from a quick glance-through)

At the moment there are no C++ wrappers available in the Altera OpenCL SDK. When vendors add support for C++ it's only for the host side, and as far as I know it's typically just in the form of a wrapper that sits in between your host code and the underlining runtime implemented in C.
