Wavefront obj loader with material files for c/cpp

Question

I am looking for a wavefront obj loader which supports loading material properties files.

Basically supporing the minimum standard.

In addition I am using math glm library for my vectors and matrices and I am looking for something that integrates well this this.

Searching for options I have found another library called glm (confusing??) which so far looks like the best alternative, although this has much more then I need, I only want the loaders not a set of rendering options included.

Other options i have looked at so far: - assimp, very extensive, much more then I need

• libwave, from 1996 and wants do to rendering

• libobj, looks promising but does not support material yet.

• Libobj, maybe a good alternative, looks like it supports what I need, but it is lacking some basic examples and needs some work for me to integrate it with the rest of my code.

• libwavefront does not support material files

Are there any other modern options which could fit in my project?

Writing your own will take about one day and you will be able to add and remove features! It's not very hard and there are plenty of tutorials. I recommend this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=849hXuOv0i8
