Azure Notification Hubs in C++ apps? - c++

Question

In Microsoft documentation there is the example for C# implementation of Azure Notification Hubs -- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/notification-hubs/notification-hubs-windows-store-dotnet-get-started-wns-push-notification#create-a-sample-windows-app
private async void InitNotificationsAsync()
{
var channel = await PushNotificationChannelManager.CreatePushNotificationChannelForApplicationAsync();
var hub = new NotificationHub("<your hub name>", "<Your DefaultListenSharedAccessSignature connection string>");
var result = await hub.RegisterNativeAsync(channel.Uri);
// Displays the registration ID so you know it was successful
if (result.RegistrationId != null)
{
var dialog = new MessageDialog("Registration successful: " + result.RegistrationId);
dialog.Commands.Add(new UICommand("OK"));
await dialog.ShowAsync();
}
}
but our app use C++ and we found part of example code in WinRT/C++ documentation:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.networking.pushnotifications.pushnotificationchannelmanager?view=winrt-22621
...but without part of Azure code:
var hub = new NotificationHub("<your hub name>", "<Your DefaultListenSharedAccessSignature connection string>");
Is it means that for apps with bare C++ Azure Messaging is impossible theme?

At this moment, only a few Azure Services can be used using the c++ SDK. You can check in here:
https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/cpp_introduction.html
However, you can interact directly to the REST Api:
