* Package name : libmcfp Version : 1.2.2 Upstream Author : Maarten L. Hekkelman <maar...@hekkelman.com> * URL : http://github.com/mhekkel/libmcfp * License : BSD-2-Clause Programming Lang: C++ Description : A header-only C++ argv and configuration parsing library There are already a few configuration parser around, but most of them introduce runtime dependencies. This header-only library avoids that and add a simple to use and complete C++ API for accessing configuration passed through command line arguments or configuration files. The argv parsing is following the POSIX standard. All of the programs I've submitted to Debian before have switched from using boost::program_options to libcfp. Adding this library to Debian would ease packaging updates to these tools a lot. (Alternative is to include a copy of this lib to each and every tools separately). This library is intended to be maintained by the med-team. This ITP replaces the one from bug nr #1024144 which had a name conflict on other platforms.
