Hi, I am Vijay Samuel, a student who has applied for GSoC. I have proposed to refactor the existing Command line and Configuration file processing system using boost program_options and boost any. Well, to start off i did some research on the existing command line option processing mechanism. The existing mechanism is a custom command line parser which comes from mysql sources and this custom code has a severe drawback of being weakly tested and is a bit messy. That is why i am proposing refactoring of the command line option and cofiguration file processing system. I have also taken a head start on my proposed project by doing some research on boost program_options and boost any. It is fairly clear that by using boost libraries the custom code can be replaced with standardized code from boost. This code can be brought into drizzle making the program options processing mechanism a more reliable and less complex affair. It would also improve the testing and maintanence of command line options processing in drizzle.
