Pete, I am currently doing some work on a redesign of CLI. The support for Java properties will be built into the parser so you could retrieve them like:
Properties props = parseResult.getProperties(); So using your example there would be two entries in the Properties instance. This will allow people to handle the properties in whatever manner they wish e.g. add them to an application context, set them as system properties, etc. -John K On Mon, 2003-02-10 at 13:12, Edwards, Peter wrote: > When I use "-Da=1 -Db=2" the method getOptionValues returns an array of [a, > 1, b, 2].
