As long as JSON has a hierarchical structure, wouldn't it be better for you to use the future property_tree library?
To which Boost library does property_tree belong? Is it Boost Property Map? I found a file propert_tree_rev5.zip in the Vault but it has been uploaded two years ago?
That's a good question. I actually wondered about using hierarchical storage for program_option, possibly based on property_tree. Nothing concrete at this point.
Yes, that's what I meant. Even if I can create my own parse function it won't help me if the file format I parse can't be represented by the storage used by Boost.ProgramOptions. But I guess the storage can't be as much generalized that someone who wants to use any file format X can create a parser for Boost.ProgramOptions, too. Boris
