I would use a simple

   for (const auto &prop: settings.prop_pairs) {

> +            const char *prop_name = settings.prop_pairs[i].first.c_str();

I would personally avoid the temp and use "prop.first.c_str()" below
or use an alias like

               const auto &name = prop.first;
               const auto &value = prop.second;

I would use a

   if (pos == std::string::npos || pos == 0) {

Why not use auto and avoid separated declaration? Potentially this will avoid
constructing empty string and then changing them.
