Error compiling on Mac M1

[battaglia01]

Trying to make on a Mac M1 and am getting two different errors where it can't convert from int to std::string:

Looking at the source, it seems there are several different functions called args(), most of which have an int return type except for the one in commandline.cpp which should return something like a const string&. What could cause this?

[zenorogue]

There is arg::args() which returns the current command-line argument. Various modules also have functions which parse the command-line arguments for the given modules, these functions are usually called readArgs but sometimes just args. Seems other compilers see using namespace arg; and assume that args is arg::args() while the Mac compiler assumes rulegen::args (since we are in module rulegen).

Anyway, I have noticed this problem in meantime and fixed it by explicitly specifying arg::args().
