#4159 closed Bugs (fixed)

program_options fails with similar parameter names

Reported by: anonymous Owned by: Vladimir Prus
Milestone: Boost 1.43.0 Component: program_options
Version: Boost 1.42.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Assume we have two parameters specified, namely myparam and myparam-other. If these are specified (with add_params()) in the given order, the parameter --myparam will be mistakenly assigned to myparam-other. If they are specified in reverse order, everything will be fine. I guess this is not the intended behavior.
