Overview
--------
GpgMEpp is a C++ wrapper (or C++ bindings) for the GnuPG project's
gpgme (GnuPG Made Easy) library, version 0.4.4 and later.
It is fairly complete, with some minor things still missing (in
particular, the key edit interface).
The design principles of this library are as follows:
1. A value-based interface (most clases are implicitly shared)
2. Callbacks are replaced by C++ interfaces (classes with only
abstract methods).
3. No exceptions are thrown
4. There is (as yet) no explicit support for multi-threaded use
(other than what gpgme itself provides; most notably the
refcounting for implicit sharing is not thread-safe)
5. To avoid binary incompatible interface changes, we make
extensive use of the d-pointer pattern and avoid virtual
methods; any polymorphism present is already provided by gpgme
itself, anyway (see e.g. Data). A notable exception of the
no-virtuals rule is the use of abstract classes to cover
C-callbacks.
GpgME was originally developed as part of the KDEPIM community
in KDE 4 it was part of kdepimlibs/gpgme++ for KF5 Gpgme++ was
renamed to KF5GpgMEpp and moved into it's own repository.

license than the one gpgme itself uses doesn't make sense.
