Cleanest way to manage unique objects in C++? - eviltoast

Hello, I would like to store these http headers in classes:

Host: developer.mozilla.org
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:50.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br
Referer: https://developer.mozilla.org/testpage.html
Connection: keep-alive
Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1
If-Modified-Since: Mon, 18 Jul 2016 02:36:04 GMT
If-None-Match: "c561c68d0ba92bbeb8b0fff2a9199f722e3a621a"
Cache-Control: max-age=0

As you can see, many have unique data (numbers, strings, list of strings). I would like to:

  • store a header name
  • store list of possible options for that header (or store if it’s a number)
  • read an input header and store and return the found option / list of options / number
  • make adding new types of headers as easy as possible

Is making hard coded classes for every type of header viable? How would this be done in the cleanest way possible?
