This makes it behave much more + like the standard getopt library. + +1999-09-30 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (show_option): Changed stringlist option string from + "=LIST" to "=ITEM". + +1999-09-29 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (cli_option::set): Fixed problem with setting a string + list option. + +1999-09-11 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (show_help): Split off two parts of this routine into + calc_max_width and show_option. + (show_option): Add "=INT" for integer options, and don't add extra + space for non-value long options. + (set): Use strtol instead of atoi to parse the integer string, to + allow for error checking. + (show_option): Fixed handling of string lists. + +1999-08-14 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (set_argv0): Sets argv0 to the complete value of + argv[0], argv0dir to the part of argv[0] up to and including the + last '/' (or blank if there is none), and argv0base to the + remainder of argv[0]. This is for use in programs that determine + what to do based on the value of the program name. + +1999-07-14 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (parse_long_eq): Fixed to account for "counter" flag + type. + (parse_long_noeq): Fixed to account for "counter" flag type. + (parse_long_eq): set() will return one, but this shouldn't return + one, so subtract one from its result. + (show_help): Added a mechanism to display default values on a + second line. + (show_help): Output a blank line before the "--help" option line. + +1999-07-04 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (show_help): Only show a "=VALUE" for string and integer + option types. + +1999-06-30 Bruce Guenter + + * messages.cc (cli_error): Moved this routine into a separate + module, and added a "cli_warning" routine. + +1999-06-25 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc (set): Added handling for two new option types: string + list and counters. A stringlist maintains a linked list of all + the given option arguments. A counter adds the flag_value to the + dataptr each time it is encountered. + (parse_short): Fixed faulty logic regarding options with values. + Need to merge parts into cli_option::set(). + +1999-06-24 Bruce Guenter + + * main.cc: Rewrote the "help" option handling to stop it being a + special case, by making an internal option list that includes a + "help" option at the end of it. + (show_help): Cleaned up the option formatting to produce more + correct output. + (build_options): Removed the need to count the options. Note + that this breaks compatibility with previous versions. + (cli_error): Added this convenience function for the CLI program + to report errors and optionally exit. + (set): Added functionality to call functions when an option is + parsed, and moved some of the option parsing into class methods + from the structure. + (main): Moved the test for showing the usage information before + the test for counting command-line arguments. +
