C++ Library for pulling system and hardware information, without hitting the command line.

## Requirements

No non-built-in ones by default.


Some libraries are required for extended functionality. See the [Configurability](#configurability) section below for details.

On Windows one needs to link to `gdi32`, `version`, `Ole32`, `OleAut32`, `wbemuuid` and `ntdll`.

A usable `git` binary is required by default, to clone https://github.com/pciutils/pciids.

	`INFOWARE_PCI_IDS_REPOSITORY` can be set to override that clone URI.

	`INFOWARE_PCI_IDS_PATH` can be set to use the specified file instead of using git at all.
