gpgmepp
brew install gpgmepp
v2.1.0
LGPL-2.1-or-later
C++ bindings library for GPGME, providing object-oriented access to GnuPG cryptographic operations.
Why you might care
Use this when building C++ applications that need to integrate GPG/PGP functionality without calling gpgme-C directly. It wraps the lower-level C GPGME library with idiomatic C++ classes and error handling, making encryption, decryption, signing, and key management more ergonomic for C++ codebases.
