Eric Newton commented on ACCUMULO-745:
--------------------------------------
Everything with {{public static void main(String[] args)}} function in the
server package should (optionally) use accumulo-site.xml, provide usage and use
an off-the-shelf argument parsing utility, unless it is in the test directory.
Every example should also provide usage and use an off-the-shelf argument
parsing utility.
> Use the Apache CLI library to parse parameters in all utilities.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-745
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: client
> Affects Versions: 1.4.1
> Reporter: Eric Newton
> Assignee: Billie Rinaldi
> Priority: Trivial
>
> In a few utilities, the command-line parsing is pretty lazy. There's no
> usage, just an NPE if you don't provide all the magic options on the
> command-line. In particular, Initialize doesn't use an off-the-shelf library
> for command-line parsing, and it really should.
> See ACCUMULO-744.
> In addition, many command-line utilities can and should be able to read
> accumulo-site.xml, and do not need to provide
> username/password/instance/zookeeper information by default.
