clang decides the language depending on the file extension, so
clang(++) -x c++ file.c or renaming the file would be the right thing.


If you're on a case insensitive file system you can also take advantage
of the fact that .C (uppercase) is interpreted as c++:

clang file.c
clang file.C

compiles the same file in C and C++ mode.
