The program options library now fails a single test on Darwin, with this
output:
../libs/program_options/test/parsers_test.cpp(205): fatal error in
"call_test_main": test p.options.size() == 1 failed
*** 1 failure detected in test case "call_test_main"
The code in question is:
putenv("PO_TEST_FOO=1");
parsed_options p = parse_environment(desc, "PO_TEST_");
BOOST_REQUIRE(p.options.size() == 1);
So, it seems that after "putenv", the string is is not available in the
'environ' variable. The variable is declared like this:
#if defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__DYNAMIC__)
#include <crt_externs.h>
static char** environ = *_NSGetEnviron();
#else
extern char** environ;
#endif
The Darwin-specific conditinal was sent by Michael LaSpina, so I don't know
what it really does, and so don't know why the test fails. I'd appreciate any
suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Volodya
