Re: [Boost-users] Unknown program_options bomb

Will, I've changed my original po::store(parse_command_line(argc, argv, desc), vm); to po::store(po::command_line_parser(argc, argv). options(desc). positional(pd). run(), vm); where desc is is an options_description and pd is a positional_options_description. This looks like an exact match for po::variables_map vm; po::store(po::command_line_parser(ac, av). options(desc).positional(p).run(), vm); po::notify(vm); which is the example from http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options/tutorial.html. However, the code still bombs if I give it a positional parameter or an option it isn't expecting. Merrill
