-------------------------------------
Assignee: Dennis E. Hamilton
> Recommend standard getopt_longs for the utilities
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COR-26
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COR-26
> Project: Corinthia
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Consumers - dftest
> Reporter: Dennis E. Hamilton
> Assignee: Dennis E. Hamilton
> Fix For: 0.5
>
>
> It is recommended that the command-line utilities provided by Corinthia use a
> common getopt model with single-letter options, verbose word options and
> common shared options (--version, --help, etc.). stdin, stdout, and stderr
> should be redirectable (via the shell) and the utilities should work with
> pipes (with appropriate encoding caveats).
> The same flavors can be used for all platforms, with filenames given in
> platform-specific form (and "..." where needed) but parameters and options
> the same across platforms.
> The GNU getopt_long approach is widely-used.
