Re: [Boost-users] [program_options] Multitoken and positional options; assertion failure

While experimenting with this one asserts:

$ bin/gcc-4.2.2/debug/multitoken_positional -m token1 token2 -- some_file multitoken_positional: ../../../../../svn_boost/trunk/libs/program_options/src/cmdline.cpp:295: std::vector<boost::program_options::basic_option<char>, std::allocator<boost::program_options::basic_option<char> > > boost::program_options::detail::cmdline::run(): Assertion `opt2.original_tokens.size() == 1' failed. Aborted

Should an exception be thrown instead, or this is a use-case worth to support?

Gevorg, thank you for providing a test case -- it is a great help to diagnose the problem. This should be now fixed in SVN HEAD: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/52440 Thanks, Volodya
