hi there, looking at applications such as geom (g_*), camcontrol, etc. makes one realise that getopt(3) is clearly not suitable for handling such complex options. camcontrol.c even contains a whole paragraph about why getopt(3) is considered not appropriate to handle camcontrol's argument parsing requirements (that was 1998!).
why not do a vendor import of popt 1.16 e.g.? are there license restrictions? or maybe some other lib... cheers. alex -- a13x _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
