Property Tree with boost:any
Hello, I'm trying to use a property tree with a boost::any like in custom_data_type.cpp from the examples folder. So far, so good. My only issue arise when I'm trying to use write_json from json_parser. I understand that boost::any do not provide direct conversion to something that can be written into a stream, but I was wondering if there is a way to provide some conversion function just like it's done for get and put inside the property tree itself.

json_parser was never really designed to work with anything but basic_string ptrees, and it shows. I have an open bug about using it with variant too. So the answer is no, there currently isn't such a thing. Sebastian
