Hi,
I was trying to use the program_options library and used the following example. However, I got an internal compiler error. I reduced the example to this minimum. The library build fine, so I assume it's compatible with VC6.
I'm afraid it's not the case, the note at: http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost-regression/developer/program_opti... says that one of the primary interfaces of program_options is not usable with that compiler.
What went wrong?
Code: #include "stdafx.h" #include <boost/program_options.hpp> #include <iostream>
int main(int ac, char* av[]) { boost::program_options::variables_map vm; std::cout << vm["compression"].as<int>(); // line 8
Specifically here, vc6 does not allow to pass template parameter to a member template. I'm not aware of any workarounds, sorry. - Volodya
