**ELFIO** is a small, header-only C++ library that provides a simple interface for reading and generating files in ELF binary format.
**ELFIO** library is independent and does not rely on any other additional projects. It is also cross-platform - the library uses standard ANSI C++ constructions and runs on wide variety of architectures.
It is used as a standalone library - it is not dependant on any other product or project. Adhering to ISO C++, it compiles on a wide variety of architectures and compilers.
While the library's implementation does make your work much easier: basic knowledge of the ELF binary format is required. Information about ELF binary format can be found widely on the web.

Note to users of previous library versions 1.0.x - Version 2.0 is not source compatible to earlier versions. But, for many projects, transition to a new library interface does not take more than several minutes.
