-------------------------------------
Summary: Make concatenated options configurable
Key: CLI-281
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-281
Project: Commons CLI
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Parser
Affects Versions: 1.4
Reporter: Sandeep Tamhankar
In my application, I have multi-character short options. I'd like to require
the user to specify such options precisely; allowing substring matches will
lead to my users' confusion. For example, if I have {{-f}} and {{-foo}}
options, and the user specifies {{-fao}}, I do *not* want it interpreted as
{{-f}} with value {{ao}}. I want parsing to fail.
It would be great for a parser option to control this behavior, defaulting to
be enabled, for backward-compatibility.
