33 typedef int parse_opt_cb(const struct option *, const char *arg, int unset);
36 * `type`::
37 * holds the type of the option, you must have an OPTION_END last in your
38 * array.
40 * `short_name`::
41 * the character to use as a short option name, '\0' if none.
43 * `long_name`::
44 * the long option name, without the leading dashes, NULL if none.
46 * `value`::
47 * stores pointers to the values to be filled.
49 * `argh`::
50 * token to explain the kind of argument this option wants. Keep it
51 * homogenous across the repository.
53 * `help`::
54 * the short help associated to what the option does.
55 * Must never be NULL (except for OPTION_END).
56 * OPTION_GROUP uses this pointer to store the group header.
58 * `flags`::
59 * mask of parse_opt_option_flags.
60 * PARSE_OPT_OPTARG: says that the argument is optionnal (not for BOOLEANs)
61 * PARSE_OPT_NOARG: says that this option takes no argument, for CALLBACKs
62 * PARSE_OPT_NONEG: says that this option cannot be negated
63 * PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN this option is skipped in the default usage, showed in
64 * the long one.
66 * `callback`::
67 * pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_CALLBACK.
69 * `defval`::
70 * default value to fill (*->value) with for PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
71 * OPTION_{BIT,SET_INT,SET_PTR} store the {mask,integer,pointer} to put in
72 * the value when met.
73 * CALLBACKS can use it like they want.
