Brian Egge commented on CLI-51: ------------------------------- Has anyone had the chance to try out the updated patch for this issue? > [cli] Parameter value "-something" misinterpreted as a parameter > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLI-51 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-51 > Project: Commons CLI > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CLI-1.x > Affects Versions: Nightly Builds > Environment: Operating System: Windows NT > Platform: PC > Reporter: Nigel King > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 1.1 > > Attachments: CL51.patch, CL51.patch > > > If a parameter value is passed that contains a hyphen as the (delimited) > first > character, CLI parses this a parameter. For example using the call > java myclass -t "-something" > Results in the parser creating the invalid parameter -o (noting that it is > skipping the 's') > My code is using the Posix parser as follows > Options options = buildCommandLineOptions(); > CommandLineParser parser = new PosixParser(); > CommandLine commandLine = null; > try { > > commandLine = parser.parse(options, args); > } > catch (ParseException e) { > > System.out.println("Invalid parameters. " + e.getMessage() + NEW_LINE); > System.exit(EXIT_CODE_ERROR); > } > This has been tested against the nightly build dated 20050503. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
