Dears, we've been using boost::program_options and it works great.
We just found a minor thing, which could be an issue, and I'm reporting it to you: when specifying and using a multitoken argument, it actually works only if put as last parameter of command line; in any other case, it eats all remaining parameters.
My specification is as follows:
desc.add_options() ("output,o", bpo::value<std::vector<std::string> >()->multitoken(), "use output setup for discovery/scan");
If then I want to use it like follows, it works:
fing -p1 -p2 -p3 -o 1 2 3
But if the user inverts the order, it does not work anymore, meaning that p3 is eaten by -o option.
fing -p1 -p2 -o 1 2 3 -p3
Is this a known limitation?
Yes. Can you try SVN HEAD version -- it should have this fixed. - Volodya
