# libpom++

C++ parser for the [POM configuration language](https://pom.computer).

Requires at least C++17.

## Building

See [C building instructions](../README.md) (C++ library will be built alongside it automatically by default).

## Basic usage

```c++
#include <pom.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main(void) {
	try {
		pom::Configuration conf = pom::Configuration("conf.pom", nullptr);
		auto indentation_type = conf.get("indentation-type");
		if (indentation_type.has_value())
			std::cout << "Indenting with " << indentation_type.value() << "\n";
		else
			std::cout << "No indentation type set!\n";
	} catch (pom::Error &error) {
		// Parsing error!
		std::cerr << error << "\n";
	}
}
```

Assuming you have run `make install`, you just need to add `-l:libpom++.a -l:libpom.a` (or `-lpom++ -lpom` to
use the shared library) to your compiler flags.


See `examples/` directory for more examples.
