The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Improving Interoperability Between Rust and C++
I am the current passive maintainer of the cpp crate: https://github.com/mystor/rust-cpp

Best practices in creating a Rust API for a C++ library? Seeking advice from those who've done it before.
I would like to utilize OMPL's functionality in Rust code, so I want to call into OMPL C++ code somehow in Rust. I've seen two (non-mutually-exclusive) options so far: - rust-cpp, which allows you to write C++ code in Rust within the cpp!() macro. - cxx, which allows you to define both sides of the FFI boundary manually (as opposed to bindgen's automatic generation).

Microsoft is rewriting core Windows libraries in Rust
There's also the cpp and cxx crates for doing C++/Rust interop, but they probably aren't appropriate to use in all cases. The C ABI is definitely the safest way to go unless you're really trying to marry Rust and C++ code bases, not just writing library bindings.

US NGO Consumer Reports also reporting on C and C++ safety for product development.
Otherwise, C would never have achieved success in MS-DOS when all the stuff it was binding to at the time required blocks of inline assembly. (Crates like rust-cpp do exist, which allow "inline C++" in the same way that C++ allows inline assembly.)

Choosing language for a new project
Actually, you can make inline C++ macro in Rust. Similar unholy monstrosities exist for inline python, inline C, inline SQL, inline HTML,...

Tired of safe programming? Embed C directly in your Rust code
Here is a more serious project that allows to embed C++ code directly in your Rust code: https://github.com/mystor/rust-cpp

Rust with C++?
Alright, thanks for all your ideas! I also found this mystor/rust-cpp, which apparently allows inline c++ as opposed to cxx. Having yet to try out any of these, I like the idea of inline code more. Thought now I feel I need to brush up my skills a bit more to try this stuff out.

CXX - Safe interop between Rust and C++
Another create which i've been contributing to and maintaining is the cpp crate, which can also be useful for interoperability with C++, as it allows to embed C++ code snippets directly within rust functions:

How do you have a library call a generator macro?
For context, see rust issue #47384 and ctor issue #27.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing rust-cpp and rust-ctor you can also consider the following projects:
cxx - Safe interop between Rust and C++
derive_more - Some more derive(Trait) options
JavaCPP - The missing bridge between Java and native C++
rust-derive-builder - derive builder implementation for rust structs
rust-bindgen - Automatically generates Rust FFI bindings to C (and some C++) libraries.
inventory - Typed distributed plugin registration
bitflags - A macro to generate structures which behave like bitflags
dl_api - The easiest, simplest and safest way to load dynamic (shared object) libraries from Rust!
ormx - bringing orm-like features to sqlx
ritual - Use C++ libraries from Rust
embed-c - Embed C code at compile time inside Rust using C2Rust
