Re: [Boost-users] program_options: how to retrieve positional options

Let's say one has defined the following:

boost::program_options::positional_options_description pdesc; pdesc.add("generic_name", -1);

Then included it in the parse:

boost::program_options::variables_map options_map;

boost::program_options::basic_parsed_options<char> options = boost::program_options::basic_command_line_parser<char>(argc, argv). positional(pdesc).run(); po::store(options, options_map); po::notify(options_map);

How does one retrieve the positional options?

Isn't it just like a normal option with the name "generic_name"?
