Hi,

In Boost.PropertyTree, INFO format has the nice #include directive.
But it seems you cannot include other formats.
Typically such INFO file,

key 
{
#include_xml "my.xml"
}

with "my.xml" : <root><child>kid</child></root>

could give : get<std::string> ("key.root.child") == "kid"

A very quick look at info parser makes me think that
it would be easy to implement. Any comment ?

Regards,
Ivan
