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"). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
