Unfortunately C++ but for others which might search for this kind of library i recommend:

ParamContainer - easy-to-use command-line parameter parser

Really small and really easy.

p.addParam("long-name", 'n', ParamContainer::regular, 
           "parameter description", "default_value");  

programname --long-name=value

cout << p["long-name"];
>> value

From my experience:

• very useful and simple
• stable on production
• well tested (by me)
