Cloom is a header only c++ counting bloom filter implementation. You need to know that bloom filters are probabilistic datastructures, a check if a value is stored will result in the following answers

• yes: the value is probably stored
• no: the value is definitly not stored

Counting bloom filters use more main memory in contrast to pure bloom filters, however with counting bloom filteres it is also possible to remove values from the filter.

• c++ compiler, e.g. gcc
• scons

run scons to build the example, now you can run

./cloom
# output
# example cloom usage
# insert 123
# 123 in filter
# remove 123
# 123 NOT in filter
# ...

You can simply include in your c++ application the header file:

#include "cloom.hpp"
...
// and create an instance
Cloom<int> cl(123);

// insert values
cl.insert(123);

// check if they are probably stored
if (cl.has(123)) {
    // probably 123 is stored in the bloom filter
}

// and remove them
cl.remove(123);

// or store to a file
cl.store("test.cl");

// or load from a file
cl.load("test.cl");

See main.cpp for more examples.
