Re: [Boost-users] [program_options][1.35] validating string value

AMDG Soumen wrote:

My option (say, "opt1") can take any of only few possible string type values (say, "value1", "value2", "value3" and "value4"). Is there anyway to specify this such that if any other value, say - "valueXX", is passed to "opt1", it throws an error?

If yes, can someone point me to documentation or sample code snippet to show how to do this?

Or, explicitly, checking against these possible values is my only option?

Does this help? http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options/howto.html#id1420416 In Christ, Steven Watanabe
