40 * `type`::
41 * holds the type of the option, you must have an OPTION_END last in your
42 * array.
44 * `short_name`::
45 * the character to use as a short option name, '\0' if none.
47 * `long_name`::
48 * the long option name, without the leading dashes, NULL if none.
50 * `value`::
51 * stores pointers to the values to be filled.
53 * `argh`::
54 * token to explain the kind of argument this option wants. Keep it
55 * homogeneous across the repository.
57 * `help`::
58 * the short help associated to what the option does.
59 * Must never be NULL (except for OPTION_END).
60 * OPTION_GROUP uses this pointer to store the group header.
62 * `flags`::
63 * mask of parse_opt_option_flags.
64 * PARSE_OPT_OPTARG: says that the argument is optional (not for BOOLEANs)
65 * PARSE_OPT_NOARG: says that this option takes no argument, for CALLBACKs
66 * PARSE_OPT_NONEG: says that this option cannot be negated
67 * PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN this option is skipped in the default usage, showed in
68 * the long one.
70 * `callback`::
71 * pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_CALLBACK.
73 * `defval`::
74 * default value to fill (*->value) with for PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
75 * OPTION_{BIT,SET_INT,SET_PTR} store the {mask,integer,pointer} to put in
76 * the value when met.
77 * CALLBACKS can use it like they want.
