Detailed Description

Helper macros to handle repetitive use of boost::program_options.

Include this file, then use the macro SYTEN_BPO_INIT first. The macro adds some standard options to the variable opt, you can add more using e.g.

opt.add_options()
  ("lattice,l", boost::program_options::value(&latFile)->default_value(""),"lattice file [required]")
;

If you want hidden options, use opt_hidden, for positional options, opt_pos. When done, use SYTEN_BPO_EXEC to parse and store the results.

Variables injected after SYTEN_BPO_EXEC:

inputVariables: map of all program options used
opt: all non-hidden variables, use e.g. in help messages
bpo_quiet: true if [-]-q[uiet] was passed: avoid unnecessary output in this case, i.e. only print a single scalar for expectation values, print nothing for state generation etc.
bpo_help: true if [-]-h[elp] was passed: print a help message and exit with return value 0.
bpo_cache: true if [-]-c[ache] was passed: attempt to use the HDD as cache if possible/reasonable, in particular call State::setMaybeCache(bpo_cache) on state objects (unless you know what you’re doing).
