GNU Gengetopt 2.17 has been released. It is available from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gengetopt/ and mirrors of that site (see list of mirror sites at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html).
GNU Gengetopt generates a C function that uses getopt_long function to parse the command line options, validate them and fill a struct. Version 2.17 * fixed bug in generating parser where no multiple option is of type string (reported by Dave Swegen) * fixed bug: the passed header file extension is used when including the header file name in the generated C source * range of occurrences for multiple options * help and usage strings are generated and accessible (the same that are printed by --help) * reduced size for multiple option parsers * fixed a problem with the internal variable optind with non glibc version of getopt. (thanks to Gyozo Papp) * --output-dir command line option (suggested by Gyozo Papp) * --string-parser generate a parser that interprets a passed string as command line arguments (suggested by Andre Noll) Visit the Gengetopt home page at http://www.gnu.org/software/gengetopt Anonymous CVS access is available.
