Here the is full code example I have adapted from the aforementioned
given example. The error message thrown is
Unhandled exception at 0x7c81eb33 in Test.exe: Microsoft C++ exception:
boost::bad_any_cast @ 0x0013f63c.
If I comment out the two lines,
ifstream ifs("multiple_sources.cfg");
store(parse_config_file(ifs, config_file_options), vm);
everything works fine.
