BOOST program_options: parsing multiple argument list.
- by Arman
Hello, I would like to pass the multiple arguments with positive or negative values.
Is it possible to parse it?
Currently I have a following initialization:
vector<int> IDlist;
namespace po = boost::program_options;
po::options_description commands("Allowed options");
commands.add_options()
("IDlist",po::value< vector<int> >(&IDlist)->multitoken(), "Which IDs to trace: ex. --IDlist=0 1 200 -2")
("help","print help")
;
and I would like to call:
./test_ids.x --IDlist=0 1 200 -2
unknown option -2
So,the program_options assumes that I am passing -2 as an another option.
Can I configure the program_options in such a way that it can accept the negative integer values?
Thanks
Arman.
