Beschreibung

Basically the same issue from the mailing list which is open since Boost 1.35: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/program-options-Problem-with-paths-that-have-spaces-td2576490.html

Problem: You cannot take a `*::filesystem::path` param that contains spaces.

Reason: BPO uses `lexical_casts` which uses stream extraction stopping on first whitespace

Possible solution: Special case for types having a ctor accepting a string and using that.

Related issue: https://github.com/boostorg/lexical_cast/issues/25 but won't be fixed there. Consider: `lexical_cast("\"/home/my user\"")` is considered OK but calling a program with `./foobar "\"/home/my user\""` is not OK. So this is a BPO issue

Rechercherichtung

Start with Boost.Program_options value parsing and read the linked mailing-list report plus lexical_cast issue #25 for the stated behavior. Trace how filesystem::path arguments are converted, then verify that paths containing spaces are accepted without changing the existing command-line handling; the payload names no source file or test to run.
