#9919: xml_parser::read_xml() and write_xml() are limited to std::string keys

 Reporter:  sanderb@…         |      Owner:  cornedbee
     Type:  Patches           |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  property_tree
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------------
 boost::property_tree::xml_parser and json_parser are hardcoded to work
 only with keys of std::string type.

 The following code will fail to compile:

 boost::property_tree::basic_ptree<boost::container::string,
 boost::container::string> pt;
 std::string filename("123.xml");
 boost::property_tree:xml_parser::read_xml(filename, pt);

 I have prepared a patch 8af8b6bf3b65fa59792d849b526678f176d87132 that
 removes this limitation and added a pull request on github
