* parse-options.c: introduce OPT_DATEMichele Ballabio2008-03-27
| | | | | | | | | There are quite a few places that will need to call approxidate(), when they'll adopt the parse-options system, so this patch adds the function parse_opt_approxidate_cb(), used by OPT_DATE.

* | parse-options: new option type to treat an option-like parameter as an argument.Pierre Habouzit2008-03-02

* parse-options: Allow to hide options from the default usage.Pierre Habouzit2007-11-22
| | | | | | | | | | | This is useful for backward-compatibility aliases, or very advanced command line switches introduced for internal git usages and have no real use for a user. parse-options still shows them if the user asks for --help-all.

* parse-options new features.Pierre Habouzit2007-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | options flags: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PARSE_OPT_NONEG allow the caller to disallow the negated option to exists. option types: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ OPTION_BIT: ORs (or NANDs) a mask. OPTION_SET_INT: force the value to be set to this integer. OPTION_SET_PTR: force the value to be set to this pointer. helper: ~~~~~~ HAS_MULTI_BITS (in git-compat-util.h) is a bit-hack to check if an unsigned integer has more than one bit set, useful to check if conflicting options have been used.

* parse-options: make some arguments optional, add callbacks.Pierre Habouzit2007-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * add the possibility to use callbacks to parse some options, this can help implementing new options kinds with great flexibility. struct option gains a callback pointer and a `defval' where callbacks user can put either integers or pointers. callbacks also can use the `value' pointer for anything, preferably to the pointer to the final storage for the value though. * add a `flag' member to struct option to make explicit that this option may have an optional argument. The semantics depends on the option type. For INTEGERS, it means that if the switch is not used in its --long-form=<value> form, and that there is no token after it or that the token does not starts with a digit, then it's assumed that the switch has no argument. For STRING or CALLBACK it works the same, except that the condition is that the next atom starts with a dash. This is needed to implement backward compatible behaviour with existing ways to parse the command line. Its use for new options is discouraged.

* Add a simple option parser.Pierre Habouzit2007-10-29
The option parser takes argc, argv, an array of struct option and a usage string. Each of the struct option elements in the array describes a valid option, its type and a pointer to the location where the value is written. The entry point is parse_options(), which scans through the given argv, and matches each option there against the list of valid options. During the scan, argv is rewritten to only contain the non-option command line arguments and the number of these is returned. Aggregation of single switches is allowed: -rC0 is the same as -r -C 0 (supposing that -C wants an arg). Every long option automatically support the option with the same name, prefixed with 'no-' to unset the switch. It assumes that initial value for strings are "NULL" and for integers is "0". Long options are supported either with '=' or without: --some-option=foo is the same as --some-option foo Acked-by: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
