Here's an example: #include <boost/program_options.hpp> #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <string> using namespace std; namespace po = boost::program_options; int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { vector< string > input_files; string myoption; po::options_description optdesc("Options"); optdesc.add_options() ("input-file,i", po::value< vector< string > >(&input_files), "Input file name." ) ("myoption", po::value< string >( &myoption ), "My option explained.") ; po::positional_options_description posopt; posopt.add("input-file", 3); po::variables_map varmap; po::store(po::command_line_parser(argc, argv).options(optdesc).positional(posopt).run(), varmap); po::notify( varmap ); if( varmap.count("myoption") ) cout << "myoption = " << myoption << endl; cout << "\nInput was:\n"; for( vector< string >::iterator si = input_files.begin(); si != input_files.end(); ++si ) cout << *si << "\n"; cout << endl; return 0; } /Mikko swapna wrote:
