paul j3 <ajipa...@gmail.com> added the comment:
The subparser is called with `parse_known_args` which just puts unknown args in a _UNRECOGNIZED_ARGS_ATTR attribute slot in the namespace, which is then passed back to the main parser. (this occurs in _SubParsersAction.__call__) If `parser.parse_known_args` is used, then these arguments will appear in the `extras` list. Otherwise `parser.parse_args` issues the 'unrecognized arguments' error message (with the main parser usage). I suspect this issue has been raised previously. And I don't see any easy way of altering the behavior. ---------- nosy: +paul.j3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34479> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
