The recent commits to the CLI code has removed the silent absorbing of unknown single letter options by the PosixParser which is good. Also the really bizarre behaviour with single hyphen, multicharacter options by the PosixParser has been removed, which is good. However with the second of these the hyphen gets removed which is not true of the BasicParser or GnuParser. Should all three behave the same?
Unfortunately, the changes have extended other bizarre behaviours of the PosixParser. In particular, I am finding that I am getting a response of '--' from the PosixParser.getOptionValue in situations where I didn't used to. The new situation is more consistent than it was in that this used to happen for long option but not for short options. Of course the new situation means that a case that used to work now does not. I will try and work out a proper unit test. -- Russel. ==================================================== Dr Russel Winder Partner Concertant LLP t: +44 20 7585 2200, +44 20 7193 9203 41 Buckmaster Road, f: +44 8700 516 084 London SW11 1EN, UK. m: +44 7770 465 077
