id summary reporter owner description type status milestone component version severity resolution keywords cc 11888 boost.test throws an exception when passed a custom command line parameter James Whitworth Raffi Enficiaud "At work we have lots of custom command line arguments for our tests and the upgrade from 1.58.0 to 1.59.0 no longer works. When running the executable our flags set (""--use_timeouts"" in this case) runtime_config::init incorrectly throws a unrecognized_param exception from within locate_parameter when parsing our custom option. It looks like it is trying to find a likely typo but there are none as it's not anything to do with the built in arguments. The runtime_config.html documentation states ""The rest of command line is forwarded to the test module initialization function supplied by you."". This stops us upgrading to versions greater than 1.59 which in turn means we cannot currently upgrade to Visual Studio 2015."
