10952	program_options in wchar_t	gast128@…	Vladimir Prus	"In Visual Studio 2013, ansi MFC builds are deprecated. More products will have to convert to wchar_t. I am aware that wchar_t is not the best Unicode representation, but it is quite dominant on Windows platforms. Some program_options parts however are bound to hard code ansi strings. For example the options_description uses std::string and char*:

{{{#!python
po::options_description desc(""Allowed options"");

std::wcout << desc; //error (actual use is a std::wofstream)
}}}

Can't this just made complete template based on char type?"	Feature Requests	new	To Be Determined	program_options	Boost 1.57.0	Problem		wchar_t
