Re: [boost] [program_options]

What about having both overloads? const char * is the best for literals, while string cont& is the best for strings variables.

void option_description::set_name(string const&_name); void option_description::set_name(const char* _name);

If the current implementation uses a temporary string, it needs just to forward the call.

void option_description::set_name(const char* _name) { std::string name(_name); option_description::set_name(name); }

I'm satisfied with this approach, and I also think it is the right approach. -Thorsten
