提升程序选项对值

我正在观察STL类的boost::program_options::value函数的奇怪行为。 我经常需要为成对的程序提供参数,例如:带有短标签的文件名,但boost::program_options::value函数似乎不适用于std::pair,而它适用于我自己定义的任何类。请考虑以下代码:

#include <string>
#include <utility>

#include <boost/program_options.hpp>

using namespace std;
namespace po = boost::program_options;

class sspair: public pair<string,string> { };

typedef pair<string,string> mypair;
// typedef sspair mypair;

istream& operator>>(istream& in, mypair& ss) {
  string s;
  in >> s;
  const size_t sep = s.find(':');
  if (sep==string::npos) {
    ss.first = string();
    ss.second = s;
  } else {
    ss.first  = s.substr(0,sep);
    ss.second = s.substr(sep+1);
  }
  return in;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  mypair a;

  try {
    po::options_description all_opt("Options");
    all_opt.add_options()
      ("arg,a", po::value<mypair>(&a),"colon separated pair")
    ;

    po::variables_map vm;
    po::store(po::parse_command_line(argc, argv, all_opt), vm);
    po::notify(vm);
  } catch(exception& e) {
    cerr << e.what() << endl;
    exit(1);
  }

  cout << "a = (" << a.first << ", " << a.second << ")" << endl;

  return 0;
}

使用typedef sspair mypair我得到预期的行为。

$ ./test 
a = (, )
$ ./test -a b:c
a = (b, c)
$ ./test -a bc
a = (, bc)

但是typedef pair<string,string> mypair我收到以下编译错误:

我发现如果我尝试使用其他stl容器,例如std::arraystd::tuple,就会发生类似的行为。

有人知道问题是什么吗?

编辑:

好的,在我阅读post之后,我刚刚发现导致此问题的原因。显然,只在名称空间中查找流运算符,在该名称空间中定义了类(po :: value函数的模板参数)。所以,通过编辑

namespace std {
  istream& operator>>(istream& in, mypair& ss) { ... }
}

pair<string,string>课程可以直接使用。

现在,在std命名空间中定义运算符有什么缺点吗?我听说这本身并不符合标准。

抱歉,只有时间快速回答。

如果您想使用std::pair<std::string, std:string>作为配对,则需要为其编写operator>>(...),此运算符也需要位于namespace std中,以便{{1}} 3}}工作。
