   4 #
   5 #   AX_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS
   6 #
   7 # DESCRIPTION
   8 #
   9 #   Test for program options library from the Boost C++ libraries. The
  10 #   macro requires a preceding call to AX_BOOST_BASE. Further
  11 #   documentation is available at
  12 #   <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
  13 #
  14 #   This macro calls:
  15 #
  16 #     AC_SUBST(BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_LIB)
  17 #
  18 #   And sets:
  19 #
  20 #     HAVE_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS
