CLI: A boost command line interpreter based on boost Program Option
Hi all, I wrote a little command line interpreter based on the program option library by Vladimir Prus. You can find it here: http://minilien.com/?bNPy1ECuWv. It's not a big thing but can help sometime. You also have the subversion repository there: http://code.google.com/p/clipo/ Let me know what you think. JD

An example for those who don't like the web pages. Example: ///// namespace po = boost::program_options; void handler(const std::vector<std::string> ¶meters) { for (std::vector<std::string>::const_iterator it = parameters.begin(); it != parameters.end(); ++it) std::cout << *it << std::endl; } void exit_(unsigned int code = 0) { exit(code); } int main(int argc, char **argv) { boost::cli::commands_description desc; desc.add_options() ("handler", po::value< std::vector<std::string>
()->notifier(&handler)->multitoken()) ("exit", po::value< unsigned int >()->notifier(&exit_)) ;
boost::cli::command_line_interpreter cli(desc, ">"); cli.interpret(std::cin); } ////// Output:
handler error: required parameter is missing in 'handler' handler 1 2 3 1 2 3 toto error: unknown option toto exit 0 Press any key to continue . . .

Do you have any intention of replicating the functionality of GNU readline? That would be awfully nice, since the readline license is very restrictive (GPL as opposed to LGPL). -Bryan

Everything program_option can do, cli can. Now do we want to replicate readline? I don't know, if people are interested in some additional functionnality just let me know or post issues on http://code.google.com/p/clipo/issues/list. Thanks. JD
Hey JD, that's great, thanks for posting it here!! I was looking for something like that after I unsucessfully tried to use boost::program_options directly. (I did not really expect it to work with /clr...) Since I am playing around with C++/CLI and on the other side really got to like boost::program_options your lib comes in very handy to me. What are the license terms? Regards, -- Christian Pfligersdorffer Software Engineering http://www.eos.info boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org wrote:

Hi Christian, License is the boost one. I have updated the headers that were misleading. Latest version on: http://minilien.com/?CZQ2q6pI8D or http://code.google.com/p/clipo/ JD
