Hi,<br>
<br>
I am having difficulty overloading validate() of boost::program_options to do conversion of doubles.<br>
<br>
I define it like in the example code (<a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options/howto.html#id549525">http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options/howto.html#id549525</a>):<br>
<br>
void validate(boost::any&amp; v,<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
const vector&lt;string&gt;&amp; values, double* target_type, int) {<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; cerr &lt;&lt; &quot;TEST\n&quot;;<br>
}<br>
<br>
However, this method is bypassed and the original validate method is used instead.<br>
How can I get it to use *my* validate implementation for the double type?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
