"struct Flag" now has a boolean ->suppress_required field. If this field is set on a flag, and that flag is given on the command line, the parser won't check whether ->required options were provided.
This will allow options which are normally required to be marked as required even if there are special cases which override this requirement, e.g. a -l (list) flag or other "alternate mode" flags. However, this feature cannot be used until the GUI's own requirement checking has been adapted to understand it. Currently, if an option marked as ->required is omitted but a flag marked as ->suppress_required is given, the command itself won't complain about the missing option but the GUI will. The field is included in the --interface-description output; the GUI just needs to be updated to make use of it. -- Glynn Clements <gl...@gclements.plus.com> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
