I don't think so, from my knowledge of Boost.ProgramOptions. The problem is that in order to employ Boost.ProgramOptions I'd have to describe all options I expect in the file. IOW, the set of parameters is fixed. The current parser in Boost.Log, on the other hand, parses all options given and then acts accordingly. For example, a user may specify different sets of sinks (represented with sections in the settings file), and the library should register the sinks as specified in the file.
As far as I remember boost.program_options allows you to parse unregistered options without throwing errors. http://bit.ly/a8L1O5 -- Christoph
