Hi,
I'm trying ro read a config file with the program_options library, but I can't figure out how to read several sections in a config file whithout knowing (the exact) section names. For example I have a config file with N [blockn] sections (n=1...N) in my config file but I don't know N:
[block1] name="Name section 1" [block2] name="Name2 section 2" . # there might or might not be more sections with the 'name' option .
Is there any support for wildcards in option names so I could write something like
options_description Opts_Desc("Config-File Options"); Opts_Desc.add_options() ("*.name", value<string>(), "Name of the block");
Unfortunately, not yet. It's possible to use wildcards like this: "option*" but not "*.name" I intend to add this, but due to feature freeze this might happen after 1.33 only. - Volodya
