Rob,
Thanks for the feedback. I agree that it should be a design goal to
minimize reliance on outside packages. The XMLBuilder that I am working
on uses a SAX parser and doesn't require any outside package as long as
you are using a 1.4+ JDK. Those using an earlier JDK will need to have a

Modelling a cli in xml has been talked about in the past and there are a
couple of things you might want to take into consideration if you are
going to implement such a feature. Firstly, there is the question of

Thanks for the testcase - I'll give it a shot in a while.
It sounds like the missing properties are accidental and should be

that uses an XML document to describe Options, Arguements, and Groups.
Hopefully it will be useful to CLI. While working on this I found that

fixed by using CLI2 or applying the outstanding patches. I am guessing
it would be helpful to add a test to show that this is the case for the
existing bug
Hi,

day job lately and CLI2 has effectively stalled in the meantime. Hopefully
I'll find some time between xmas and new year to get things in motion again.
The main thing that needs doing is to go through bugzilla revi
I used the COMMONS CLI package for a couple of recent projects and I ran
into some serious problems and submitted some patches. Next, I tried
version 2, which appears to be a ground up rewrite. It worked a lot
better after a couple of minor tweaks and a patch. I don't see much
activity lately in CV
