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. -
