Member Enumeration Documentation

anonymous enum

Mutually exclusive ordering values. Enumeration values: REQUIRE_ORDER  REQUIRE_ORDER means that processing stops and EOF is returned as soon as a non-option argument is found. opt_ind() will return the index of the next argv element so the program can continue processing the rest of the argv elements. PERMUTE_ARGS  PERMUTE_ARGS means the argv elements are reordered dynamically (permuted) so that all options appear first. When the elements are permuted, the order of the options and the following arguments are maintained. When the last option has been processed, EOF is returned and opt_ind() returns the index into the next non-option element. RETURN_IN_ORDER  RETURN_IN_ORDER means each argv element is processed in the order is it seen. If the element is not recognized as an option, '1' is returned and opt_arg() refers to the argv element found. Definition at line 46 of file Get_Opt.h. { /** * REQUIRE_ORDER means that processing stops and @c EOF is * returned as soon as a non-option argument is found. @c opt_ind() * will return the index of the next @a argv element so the program * can continue processing the rest of the @a argv elements. */ REQUIRE_ORDER = 1, /** * PERMUTE_ARGS means the @a argv elements are reordered dynamically * (permuted) so that all options appear first.

enum ACE_Get_Opt::OPTION_ARG_MODE

Mutually exclusive option argument mode used by long options. Enumeration values: NO_ARG  Doesn't take an argument. ARG_REQUIRED  Requires an argument, same as passing ":" after a short option character in optstring. ARG_OPTIONAL  Argument is optional, same as passing "::" after a short option character in optstring. Definition at line 75 of file Get_Opt.h. { /// Doesn't take an argument. NO_ARG = 0, /// Requires an argument, same as passing ":" after a short option /// character in @a optstring. ARG_REQUIRED = 1, /// Argument is optional, same as passing "::" after a short /// option character in @a optstring. ARG_OPTIONAL = 2 };

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_Get_Opt::ACE_Get_Opt (  int    argc, ACE_TCHAR **    argv, const ACE_TCHAR *    optstring, int    skip_args = 1, int    report_errors = 0, int    ordering = PERMUTE_ARGS, int    long_only = 0 )

Constructor initializes the command line to be parsed. All information for parsing must be supplied to this constructor. Parameters: argc  The number of argv elements to parse. argv  Command line tokens, such as would be passed to main(). optstring  Nul-terminated string containing the legitimate short option characters. A single colon ":" following an option character means the option requires an argument. A double colon "::" following an option character means the argument is optional. The argument is taken from the rest of the current argv element, or from the following argv element (only valid for required arguments; optional arguments must always reside in the same argv element). The argument value, if any is returned by the opt_arg() method. optstring can be extended by adding long options with corresponding short options via the long_option() method. If the short option already appears in optstring, the argument characteristics must match, otherwise it is added. See long_option() for more information. If 'W', followed by a semi-colon ';' appears in optstring, then any time a 'W' appears on the command line, the following argument is treated as a long option. For example, if the command line contains "program -W foo", "foo" is treated as a long option, that is, as if "program --foo" had been passed. The following characters can appear in optstring before any option characters, with the described effect: '+' changes the ordering to REQUIRE_ORDER. '-' changes the ordering to RETURN_IN_ORDER. ':' changes the return value from operator() and get_opt() from '?' to ':' when an option requires an argument but none is specified. Parameters: skip_args  Optional (default 1). The specified number of initial elements in argv are skipped before parsing begins. Thus, the default prevents argv[0] (usually the command name) from being parsed. argc includes all argv elements, including any skipped elements. report_errors  Optional, if non-zero then parsing errors cause an error message to be displayed from the operator() method before it returns. The error message is suppressed if this argument is 0. This setting also controls whether or not an error message is displayed in long_option() encounters an error. ordering  Optional (default is PERMUTE_ARGS); determines how the argv elements are processed. This argument is overridden by two factors: The POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable. If this environment variable is set, the ordering is changed to REQUIRE_ORDER. Leading characters in optstring (see above). Any leading ordering characters override both the ordering argument and any effect of the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable. Parameters: long_only  Optional. If non-zero, then all options are treated as long options. If a long option is not recognized, the class tries to find a matching short option. Multiple short options can be combined as long as only the last one can takes an argument. For example, if optstring is defined as "abc:" or "abc::" then the command line "program -abcxxx" short options a, b, and c are found with "xxx" as the argument for c. However, if the command line is specified as "program -acb" only options a and c are found with "b" as the argument for c. Also, for options with optional arguments, that is, those followed by "::", the argument must be in the same argv element, so "program -abc xxx" will only find "xxx" as the argument for c if optstring is specified as "abc:" not "abc::".

int ACE_Get_Opt::operator() (  void    )

Scan elements of argv (whose length is argc) for short option characters given in optstring or long options (with no short option equivalents). If an element of argv starts with '-', and is not exactly "-" or "--", then it is a short option element. The characters of this element (aside from the initial '-') are option characters. If it starts with "--" followed by other characters it is treated as a long option. If operator() is called repeatedly, it returns each of the option characters from each of the option elements. Returns: The parsed option character. The following characters have special significance. Return values: 0  A long option was found Either  an unknown option character was found, or the option is known but requires an argument, none was specified, and optstring did not contain a leading colon. :  ' A known option character was found but it requires an argument and none was supplied, and the first character of optstring was a colon. opt_opt() indicates which option was specified. 1  ' RETURN_IN_ORDER was specified and a non-option argument was found. EOF  No more option characters were found. opt_ind() will return the index in argv of the first argv element that is not an option. If PERMUTE_ARGS was specified, the argv elements have been permuted so that those that are not options now come last. Note: The standards are unclear with respect to the conditions under which '?' and ':' are returned, so we scan the initial characters of optstring up unto the first short option character for '+', '-', and ':' in order to determine ordering and missing argument behavior.

ACE_INLINE int & ACE_Get_Opt::opt_ind (  void    )

Index in argv of the next element to be scanned. This is used for communication to and from the caller and for communication between successive calls to operator(). On entry to operator(), zero means this is the first call; initialize. When operator() returns EOF, this is the index of the first of the non-option elements that the caller should itself scan.

ACE_TCHAR* ACE_Get_Opt::nextchar_ [private]

The next char to be scanned in the option-element in which the last option character we returned was found. This allows us to pick up the scan where we left off * If this is zero, or a null string, it means resume the scan by advancing to the next <argv>-element. Definition at line 418 of file Get_Opt.h. Referenced by long_option_i, nextchar_i, operator(), and short_option_i.

int ACE_Get_Opt::nonopt_end_ [private]

Referenced by long_option, long_option_i, and short_option_i.

int ACE_Get_Opt::optind

Index in argv_ of the next element to be scanned. Deprecated: This is public for backwards compatibility only. It will be made private in a release of ACE past 5.3. Do not write code that relies on this member being public; use the opt_ind() accessor method instead. Definition at line 328 of file Get_Opt.h. Referenced by long_option_i, nextchar_i, operator(), opt_ind, permute, permute_args, and short_option_i.

int ACE_Get_Opt::optopt_ [private]
