http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31284 CLI does not support long parameter names on command-line. Summary: CLI does not support long parameter names on command- line. Product: Commons Version: 1.0 Alpha Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: CLI AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The documentation of CLI says that CLI supports short (single character) and long parameter names (string). It even gives as example the ANT java application. However, after doing several tests and reviewing the JavaDoc thoroughly, I am left to conclude that the assumption is false. I checked the ANT application source code to find out that ANT DOES NOT USE CLI as command- line parser. The code for CLI needs to be reviewed and updated to support long parameter names on the command-line. I would also suggest to use an XML approach to declare the various command-line parameters and formats. A more declarative approach would certainly makes things easier. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
