Thank you for replying. As I explained, I deleted my main method and I inserted first.cpp (boost program_option example) in my project. It compiles f but when I pass an options to the command line (ex. --help) the assertion fails. Note that the program has no problem if no parameter is passed to the command line. Back trace from the program shows that the line of boost code that trigger the assertion is line 63 of options_description.cpp: - if (*m_long_name.rbegin() == '*') The trace is the following: msvcp90d.dll!std::_Debug_message(const wchar_t * message=0x017f7918, const wchar_t * file=0x017f7778, unsigned int line=112) Line 24 C++ SchedulerModel.exe!std::_String_const_iterator<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char>

Since I am using cplex library, can it be that this problem is triggered by a particular method/function in such a library ? (date_time works perfectly) Thank you again Alessandro On Fri, Feb 6, 2009 at 10:43 PM, Alex MDC <alex.mdc@gmail.com> wrote:
I am newbie and I am developing in C++ using VC9, Boost 1.37, CPLEX 11.1. I use date_time and program_options boost libraries and my program compiles fine. Date_time works perfectly while program_options gives me a runtime error saying "Debug assertion failed .... string iterator not dereferencable" every time I pass any argument in the command line. The assertion fails at line 112 of "C:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\xstring"
When you get the assertion failure, have a look at the back trace to find out which line in program_options and which line of your code it is coming from, maybe that will give more clues.
If you're still stuck it is helpful if you can post a *small* but complete code snippet that can reproduce your problem, as there may be something very simple that you're doing wrong.
