Ok - we've tried this out. It was missing a piece of
functionality... the ability to take "true" or "false" in as a
boolean. We added this back in and committed the new getpot-roy.h.
Thanks. Any idea why the bool case wasn't adequately handled by the
template? Is it inadvertently upcasting to int or something? I
needed the const char* overloading to handle memory management of C
strings, but I thought the rest would work with the generic code.
We also had to change a few things in our source code... but nothing
major.
I hate to be a pain in the neck, but would you let me know every one
of the minor things? Ideally I'd like this new file to be completely
backwards compatible both with the libMesh fork of GetPot and with the
main GetPot. Everyone who has to change their libMesh code is someone
who might be bugging us on the mailing list later, and if there's
anything incompatible with GetPot 1.1.18 then it'll be that much
harder to talk Frank-Rene Schaefer into merging our changes upstream.
Thanks,
