How can this simple toml file be parsed?

[[elems]]
a = 1
b = 2

[[elems]]
a = 10
b = 20

It should be an array so once parsing the table, tbl["elems"] should be an array or array of tables but it is not.

What is wrong here? I use VS 2022.

Thanks for a hint how to use it properly.

Please use the bug report template. I will close this so you can re-submit with the information requested in the template.

Hm seems to work if I use the cast like this: *tbl.get_as<toml::array>("elems"). Interesting.

Let me dig a bit deeper. And thanks for quick reply.

I suggest you see the Working with TOML data section of the main page for usage examples.
