boost::program_options parameters

[coolkehon]

I have a problem with boost::program_options
I have an option "password,p" (--password || -p)
this option is supposed to be able to accept the password (not recommended) via command line and if the option is empty (myprog -v -p -o file) then it should be added to the vector<string> as "" (empty) because multiple passwords can be defined (myprog -v -p pass1 pass2 -p -o file) but when i get to a -p that is without an value. regarless of whether I use implicit_value(vector<string>(1,"")) or default_value(..) it replaces the entire vector with the value I gave it. is there a way to have it added to the vector ?

You can delete your other post by clicking on the delete (red X) in the corner of the post box if no one has replied yet.

In any case, I have only used program options for a couple simple uses. The way you are accepting the data as an std::vector means that you will be getting a new vector for each parameter. So I would suggest trying to find a way to adjust the code to read individual strings and just manually push_back() them into the vector.
