Detailed Description

Option that does not take an argument.

An option is specified on the command-line as follows

   --option-string
   -O

where

   Option::l_name = "option-string"
   Option::s_name = 'O'

Specifying an option in a file is similar, but only the Option::l_name can be used, for instance

   option-string

Member Function Documentation

int Option_no_arg::process	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv
	)		const throw (Arg_error) [virtual]

Processes an Option from program command-line arguments.

Parameters:

argc	Number of command-line arguments.
argv	The command-line arguments.

Returns:

If this Option is in the arguments, its index is returned; otherwise < 0.

Exceptions:

Arg_error

Error in processing the Option. This will never actually occur. It is just here because the function extends a virtual one.

Implements jwscxx::base::Option.

Definition at line 431 of file option.cpp.

void Option_no_arg::print	(	ostream &	out,
		int	width
	)		const throw (Arg_error) [virtual]

Prints an Option to an output stream.

The format for printing is as follows

   -O, --option-string  Option description.

The Option::desc may wrap to multiple lines, but will be aligned properly.

Parameters:

out	Output stream to print to.
width	Width of the option name field to use.

Note:

The format for printing assumes an 80 character line width.

Exceptions:

Arg_error

Maximum width is 60.
