> Project: Commons CLI
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CLI-1.x
> Affects Versions: 1.1
> Environment: Debian stable x86 with Sun JDK 1.6.0_02
> Reporter: Matt Ray
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: BugCLI138Test.java

>
> related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-71
> The command-line parser interprets arguments to options as options if they
> match existing options. Example:
> Assume
> -a arg
> -b arg
> -a b -b a was fixed in CLI-71, but
> -a "-b" returns
> Unable to parse command line: no argument for:a
> -a "-c" is OK if "-c" is not defined as an option.
> The option in my case was "-password" and their password happened to match
> one of the options.
