>    Affects Versions: 1.5
>            Reporter: Dominik Stadler
>            Priority: Critical

> I discovered a case which can trigger a StringIndexOutOfBoundsException in 
> {{{}CommandLineParser.parse(){}}}.
> The following code-snippet reproduces it:
> {noformat}
>       CommandLineParser parser = new DefaultParser();
>       Options options = new Options();
>       parser.parse(options, new String[] {"-=-"}); {noformat}
>  
> When run against current commons-cli 1.5.0 as well as on latest git, it 
> causes the following stacktrace:
> {noformat}
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: begin 
> 0, end 1, length 0
>     at java.base/java.lang.String.checkBoundsBeginEnd(String.java:3319)

>  {noformat}

> According to the JavaDoc, all failures to parse the arguments should lead to 
> a {{{}ParseException{}}}, but it seems this case is not handled currently.
