Summary: optparse "store" action should not gobble up next option
Initial Comment:
Hi,
Check the following code:
--------------opttest.py----------
from optparse import OptionParser
def process_options():
global options, args, parser
parser = OptionParser()
parser.add_option("--test", action="store_true")
parser.add_option("-m", metavar="COMMENT", dest="comment", default=None)
(options, args) = parser.parse_args()
return
process_options()
print "comment (%r)" % options.comment
---------------------
$ ./opttest.py -m --test
comment ('--test')
I was expecting this to give an error as "--test" is an option. But it looks
like even C library's getopt() behaves similarly. It will be nice if optparse
can report error in this case.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
