77 * Description
78 * The GOption commandline parser is intended to be a simpler replacement for the
79 * popt library. It supports short and long commandline options, as shown in the
80 * following example:
81 * testtreemodel -r 1 --max-size 20 --rand --display=:1.0 -vb -- file1 file2
82 * The example demonstrates a number of features of the GOption commandline parser
83 * Options can be single letters, prefixed by a single dash. Multiple
84 * short options can be grouped behind a single dash.
85 * Long options are prefixed by two consecutive dashes.
86 * Options can have an extra argument, which can be a number, a string or a
87 * filename. For long options, the extra argument can be appended with an
88 * equals sign after the option name.
89 * Non-option arguments are returned to the application as rest arguments.
90 * An argument consisting solely of two dashes turns off further parsing,
91 * any remaining arguments (even those starting with a dash) are returned
92 * to the application as rest arguments.
93 * Another important feature of GOption is that it can automatically generate
94 * nicely formatted help output. Unless it is explicitly turned off with
95 * g_option_context_set_help_enabled(), GOption will recognize the
96 * --help, -?, --help-all
97 * and --help-groupname options
98 * (where groupname is the name of a GOptionGroup)
99 * and write a text similar to the one shown in the following example to stdout.
100 * Usage:
101 * testtreemodel [OPTION...] - test tree model performance
102 * Help Options:
103 * -?, --help Show help options
104 * --help-all Show all help options
105 * --help-gtk Show GTK+ Options
106 * Application Options:
107 * -r, --repeats=N Average over N repetitions
108 * -m, --max-size=M Test up to 2^M items
109 * --display=DISPLAY X display to use
110 * -v, --verbose Be verbose
111 * -b, --beep Beep when done
112 * --rand Randomize the data
113 * GOption groups options in GOptionGroups, which makes it easy to
114 * incorporate options from multiple sources. The intended use for this is
115 * to let applications collect option groups from the libraries it uses,
116 * add them to their GOptionContext, and parse all options by a single call
117 * to g_option_context_parse(). See gtk_get_option_group() for an example.
118 * If an option is declared to be of type string or filename, GOption takes
119 * care of converting it to the right encoding; strings are returned in UTF-8,
120 * filenames are returned in the GLib filename encoding. Note that this only
121 * works if setlocale() has been called before g_option_context_parse().
122 * Here is a complete example of setting up GOption to parse the example
123 * commandline above and produce the example help output.
