Re: [Boost-users] positional arguments in boost::program_options

I can (mostly) get around this by naming all the fake positional arguments something like --ZZZZarg and assuming no one will ever want to pass that to another program, but it's a bit unsatisfactory conceptually. Is there a better way?

Actually, playing around more, it's not even acceptable: something like my_wrapper target_program --help will trigger my wrapper's --help option. And I definitely *do* want that and perhaps some other options that could potentially conflict. Is there a way to get the behavior I want with Boost or am I out of luck? Evan
