I have one additional item for the command line processing. It is a cmdline tag that allows you to extract command line arguments easily. I am also attaching a test jelly script that demonstrates. This may not be how you want to handle this. It may make more sense for this functionality to be bundled into "set", but this tag may be useful nonetheless.
Examples: <!-- var a is set to option -a --> <cmdline var="a" option="a" /> <!-- the script writes and error and exits if -b is not available --> <cmdline var="b" option="b" required="true" /> <!-- if -c wasn't passed in var c will be set to "default" --> <cmdline var="c" option="c" default="default" /> -jason horman -----Original Message----- From: James Strachan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 4:36 AM To: Jakarta Commons Developers List Subject: Re: [jelly] usage, output file From: "Jason Horman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > I am attaching the new Jelly.java and testCmdLineOptions.jelly files.

I've committed all these changes. FWIW I just tried to build the latest CLI via Maven (b7) and it worked fine. (I did make one minor patch to a unit test case that wasn't working on Windows). I've also updated the current commons-cli SNAPSHOT in the Maven repository. I've added a little target to maven.xml so that you can type... maven demo:cmdline to run your command line Jelly script that demonstrates how to access the command line options and arguments from inside a Jelly script (using beanshell) James ------- http://radio.weblogs.com/0112098/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
