# v2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I never really liked the interface of v1, so after coming back to this project, I spent some time thinking about how it could be improved,
|
||
|
|
took some inspiration from Golangs flag module, and made v2, which has a simpler, more flexible interface with better type safety
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
- It doesn't cast char* to uint64_t and require you to cast it back
|
||
|
|
- It doesn't require you to create a parser object, you just call parse
|
||
|
|
- You don't have to add the arguments to that parser object, it's taken care of just by calling the constructor
|
||
|
|
- You aren't required to provide descriptions for you program and every argument
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That last one means that v2 will _not_ take care of --help and -h for you. If you want a help menu, you have to create it yourself.
|
||
|
|
But help menus aren't always required and when you do want one, this gives you control over what it looks like

# How do I use this

|
|
|

|
|
Check out [test.cpp](test.cpp). It demonstrates the full scope of this library
