Fair point. I forgot about that. Could we extend cli to
support functionality like this? We could have specific Options
implementations e.g. PosixOptions.
e.g.
interface PosixOptions
{
// required methods
}
class PosixOptionsImpl implements PosixOptions
{
// implement all of the methods on PosixOptions
// and have them delegate appropriately to
// Options or other classes were appropriate
// e.g. PosixParser, SimpleParser
}
interface CommandLineParser
{
public List parse( String[] args );
}
class PosixParser implements CommandLineParser
{
..
}
class SimpleParser implements CommandLineParser
{
..
}
I haven't gone through the whole scenario but they
are my initial thoughts on it.
