history

Project history and usage

cURLpp is a C++ wrapper around libcurl, intended for projects that want an object-oriented, type-safe, exception-safe layer over the C libcurl API.

Project history

The official site and README describe cURLpp as a wrapper for libcURL and explicitly frame it as an optional C++ layer rather than a replacement for direct libcurl use. The GitHub tags page shows release tags from 0.7.1 in 2007 through 0.8.1 in 2017.

Adoption history

cURLpp's adoption is mostly as a development library package, especially where C++ applications prefer packaged headers and a small wrapper library over hand-written libcurl handle management. The supplied package-manager facts show it available in Homebrew, Debian and Ubuntu as libcurlpp-dev, Fedora, and Nix.

How it is used

Developers use cURLpp when they want libcurl capabilities through C++ standard library structures, exceptions, and type-safe options. The official documentation points users to a programming guide and examples directory, while also warning that direct libcurl is sufficient when the wrapper's features are not needed.

Why package nerds care

cURLpp is package-nerd significant as a thin binding package: it tracks libcurl compatibility, ships headers and build metadata such as curlpp-config, and sits in the common distro category of language-level wrappers around a core C networking library.
