41 typedef int parse_opt_cb(const struct option *, const char *arg, int unset);
44 * `type`::
45 * holds the type of the option, you must have an OPTION_END last in your
46 * array.
48 * `short_name`::
49 * the character to use as a short option name, '\0' if none.
51 * `long_name`::
52 * the long option name, without the leading dashes, NULL if none.
54 * `value`::
55 * stores pointers to the values to be filled.
57 * `argh`::
58 * token to explain the kind of argument this option wants. Keep it
59 * homogeneous across the repository.
61 * `help`::
62 * the short help associated to what the option does.
63 * Must never be NULL (except for OPTION_END).
64 * OPTION_GROUP uses this pointer to store the group header.
66 * `flags`::
67 * mask of parse_opt_option_flags.
68 * PARSE_OPT_OPTARG: says that the argument is optional (not for BOOLEANs)
69 * PARSE_OPT_NOARG: says that this option takes no argument, for CALLBACKs
70 * PARSE_OPT_NONEG: says that this option cannot be negated
71 * PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN: this option is skipped in the default usage, and
72 * shown only in the full usage.
73 * PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT: if no argument is given, the default value
74 * is used.
75 * PARSE_OPT_NODASH: this option doesn't start with a dash.
76 * PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP: says that argh shouldn't be enclosed in brackets
77 * (i.e. '<argh>') in the help message.
78 * Useful for options with multiple parameters.
80 * `callback`::
81 * pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_CALLBACK.
83 * `defval`::
84 * default value to fill (*->value) with for PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
85 * OPTION_{BIT,SET_INT,SET_PTR} store the {mask,integer,pointer} to put in
86 * the value when met.
87 * CALLBACKS can use it like they want.
