Hi,
Is the getopts unit deprecated or not recommended for usage?
It is not deprecated.
The reason
I ask is because I see CustApp has similar functionality to the getopts
unit, but the custapp has it’s own implementation - it doesn’t use the
getopts unit at all.
Correct. getopts is roughly based on the unix getopts mechanism.
Or am I not understanding the purpose of the getopts unit correctly?
They serve the same purpose, but function differently.
Simply use the one whose interface you like best.
