-------------------------------------
Summary: Allow startup properties of the form "--switch" in
addition to "--option=value"
Key: PIVOT-1033
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1033
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wtk
Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
Sometimes applications need options that are either specified or not (a common
one is "–verbose" for instance), where there is no need for a value, but simply
the presence (or absence) of the flag. Our current option processing in
BrowserApplicationContext and DesktopApplicationContext will not allow that –
it always requires "–option=value". This could be changed. Then the Map could
have a Boolean.TRUE as the value (which could be ignored, of course), but the
semantics would be the same as if the option were given as ("–option=true"),
but with less typing required ("--option").
