33 // The LINQ version just changes the implementation of
34 // OptionSet.Parse(IEnumerable<string>), and confers no semantic changes.
37 // A Getopt::Long-inspired option parsing library for C#.
39 // NDesk.Options.OptionSet is built upon a key/value table, where the
40 // key is a option format string and the value is a delegate that is
41 // invoked when the format string is matched.
43 // Option format strings:
44 // Regex-like BNF Grammar:
47 // sep: ( [^{}]+ | '{' .+ '}' )?
48 // aliases: ( name type sep ) ( '|' name type sep )*
50 // Each '|'-delimited name is an alias for the associated action. If the
51 // format string ends in a '=', it has a required value. If the format
52 // string ends in a ':', it has an optional value. If neither '=' or ':'
53 // is present, no value is supported. `=' or `:' need only be defined on one
54 // alias, but if they are provided on more than one they must be consistent.
56 // Each alias portion may also end with a "key/value separator", which is used
57 // to split option values if the option accepts > 1 value. If not specified,
58 // it defaults to '=' and ':'. If specified, it can be any character except
59 // '{' and '}' OR the *string* between '{' and '}'. If no separator should be
60 // used (i.e. the separate values should be distinct arguments), then "{}"
61 // should be used as the separator.
63 // Options are extracted either from the current option by looking for
64 // the option name followed by an '=' or ':', or is taken from the
65 // following option IFF:
66 // - The current option does not contain a '=' or a ':'
67 // - The current option requires a value (i.e. not a Option type of ':')
69 // The `name' used in the option format string does NOT include any leading
70 // option indicator, such as '-', '--', or '/'. All three of these are
71 // permitted/required on any named option.
73 // Option bundling is permitted so long as:
74 // - '-' is used to start the option group
75 // - all of the bundled options are a single character
76 // - at most one of the bundled options accepts a value, and the value
77 // provided starts from the next character to the end of the string.
79 // This allows specifying '-a -b -c' as '-abc', and specifying '-D name=value'
82 // Option processing is disabled by specifying "--". All options after "--"
83 // are returned by OptionSet.Parse() unchanged and unprocessed.
85 // Unprocessed options are returned from OptionSet.Parse().
89 // OptionSet p = new OptionSet ()
90 // .Add ("v", v => ++verbose)
91 // .Add ("name=|value=", v => Console.WriteLine (v));
92 // p.Parse (new string[]{"-v", "--v", "/v", "-name=A", "/name", "B", "extra"});
94 // The above would parse the argument string array, and would invoke the
95 // lambda expression three times, setting `verbose' to 3 when complete.
96 // It would also print out "A" and "B" to standard output.
97 // The returned array would contain the string "extra".
99 // C# 3.0 collection initializers are supported and encouraged:
100 // var p = new OptionSet () {
101 // { "h|?|help", v => ShowHelp () },
104 // System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter is also supported, allowing the use of
105 // custom data types in the callback type; TypeConverter.ConvertFromString()
106 // is used to convert the value option to an instance of the specified
109 // var p = new OptionSet () {
110 // { "foo=", (Foo f) => Console.WriteLine (f.ToString ()) },
113 // Random other tidbits:
114 // - Boolean options (those w/o '=' or ':' in the option format string)
115 // are explicitly enabled if they are followed with '+', and explicitly
116 // disabled if they are followed with '-':
118 // var p = new OptionSet () {
119 // { "a", s => a = s },
121 // p.Parse (new string[]{"-a"}); // sets v != null
122 // p.Parse (new string[]{"-a+"}); // sets v != null
123 // p.Parse (new string[]{"-a-"}); // sets v == null
