Ever thought about learning a new programming language, doing your first try with a command line program, and first of all you want to have some command line options? Maybe you have just an idea to do some difficult task in a small command line program, and of course you need options...
... but most of the time you have to reinvent the wheel?!
Why not using a small and easy library, which does exactly THAT task? Which gives you the possibility to fully concentrate on the original task to be done and developed?
This is a goal of this project.
The main goals of this project are a personal ones:
- to have fun programming similiar behaving code in different languages
- learning new programming languages through adding them to this repository
cmdlineoptions
A library for some languages handling commandline options in the dashed fashion.
Currently available as:
- java
- Currently available just as a Java class, within an eclipse project. :)
- C
- static/shared library
- (C++ maybe coming soon...)
- maybe other languages in the future?
It supports single dashed options like "-h", double dashed options "--help" and additional option alternatives. It has got automatic help handling of all configured options with "-h", "--help" and "-?".
In the end you can define your own commandline parameter style, because you define the option name yourself like 'CmdOptions.create("-myoption");' or '...create("+anotheropt")', etc.
The library - or better, the libraries - are planned to be consistent over all languages, so you are able to define and check and retrieve options with similar function calls.
Current work and future plans
Working on:
JUnit testsJava: better errorhandlingJava: ExamplesC version- Getting started
- Unit tests
Some java improvements- get the improvments into the C version
Future plans:
- C++ class version
- haskell
- ...
