v1.0.1 release

Announcing the release of version 1.0.1 of conjure_enum, a lightweight header-only C++20 library designed to streamline working with enums by providing comprehensive enum reflection capabilities.

Conjure_enum: Empowering Your C++ Enum Workflows

conjure_enum empowers you to manipulate enums in C++20 with ease. It boasts a rich set of functionalities that enhance code readability, maintainability, and flexibility. Here's a closer look at what conjure_enum brings to the table:

• Effortless String-to-Enum and Enum-to-String Conversion: Effortlessly convert between string representations and their corresponding enum values, making it ideal for user input processing or data parsing.
• Seamless Enum Iteration: Iterate over the elements of an enum with ease, simplifying common operations like processing all enum values in a loop.
• Underlying Integer Value Retrieval: Retrieve the underlying integer value associated with an enum element, useful for scenarios where numerical representations are required.
• Enumeration Size Determination: Determine the total number of elements within an enum, aiding in tasks like pre-allocating memory or dynamically iterating.
• Enum Name and Value Access: Retrieve comprehensive information about enums, including lists of all enum names, their corresponding values, and even name-value pairs.
• Scoped Enum Handling: Effectively handle scoped enums by determining if an enum is scoped and removing the scope from scoped enum names if necessary.
• Value Validation: Verify if a given value is a valid member of an enum, ensuring data integrity and preventing unexpected behavior.
• Underlying Type Acquisition: Get the underlying type of the enum, providing valuable insights into the enum's data representation.

Embrace a Modern C++ Enum Experience with conjure_enum

conjure_enum's header-only design ensures effortless integration into your C++20 projects, while its intuitive API fosters a smooth development experience. With its rich set of functionalities, conjure_enum empowers you to work with enums in C++20 more effectively and efficiently.
