I don't get why. Still the question remains - if Boost is unwanted for the client, what additional benefit does the parser provide to drizzled. It would make more sense that all components use one and the same parser to read the same config file. (Ie, if client can't use Boost, then drizzled should use the home grown one.) henrik -- [email protected] +358-40-8211286 skype: henrik.ingo irc: hingo www.openlife.cc My LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=9522559 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
