In the manual it says:  cl_I order_of_rubiks_cube_group = "43252003274489856000";
so I declared a string, S, read it from a file, and then I said

cl_I = S; 
I also tried cl_I = cl_I(S),

but it did not work. I assume because the string is dynamic there is a problem. I could not find the correct function or class constructor that takes a string. 

Here is the error:
In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
e.cc:75: error: conversion from ‘std::string’ to non-scalar type ‘cln::cl_I’ requested
make: *** [e.o] Error

Which of the conversion functions listed in the manual, section
"Input functions" [1], did you try, and how?
