Emmanuel Bourg updated CLI-179:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.4
Good point. But I don't know how this could be implemented. I see how one could
work around this issue, either:
- drop the required flag on the options
- perform a two pass parsing with different options: the first one to detect a
"standalone" option, the second one to parse all the options allowed
Suggestions are welcome.
> Needs "standalone" options that can be used even if required options are not
> set

> it is currently impossible to have options like "help" or "version" if we
> also have some required options. The parsing results in an error "Missing
> parameters".
> But for an "help" or "version" option, it would be usefull to display the
> wanted information, even if required options are not set.
