http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36998 Summary: Parsing error? Product: Commons Version: 1.0 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: CLI AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi If one accidentally confuses the long and short argument name styles, then the value of the argument is incorrect. This is mad clear by an example: If I have a program that I call as follows: my_prog --file my_file.txt or my_prog -f my_file.txt but I make a typo and write my_prog -file my_file.txt then getOptionValue('f') will return "ile" (i.e. it thinks the remainder of the argument's name is the argument). "my_file.txt" will be ignored. This is clearly an error that the user has made, but I think that CLI should be able to detect such an error and throw an appropriate exception. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
