RE: Problem with - in namespace

[butek]

I don't recall. Who brought in the excalibur CL code? Might that person know the answers off the top of his head? It would be quicker than one of us going out to Excalibur and seeing how that works, or looking through the CL code to come up with a fix.

I will bet there is no specific reason other than the cod we took from the Excalibur project wasn't that robust.  I would check to see if the source has been updated lately an update our copy of it if so.  If not, we can do a few things:
1. Fix our stuff up to do the right thing
2. Notify the Excalibur group about the bugs and get/provide fixes

The CL argument processing interprets a "-" as an argument delimitter if an option has multiple arguments.
There is no attempt made to see if the - is within a string or escaped.

Does anyone know why ?

Also if I use the short form of an option that takes a single argument, I can have whitespace between the option and the argument. But if I use the short form of an option that takes multiple arguments, there cannot be any whitespace between the option and the argument.

Does anyone know why ?
