Sven commented on CLI-218:
--------------------------
Also, the documentation of getOptionValue() doesn't even mention whether the
last or first value is returned. This should be fixed as well.
> Add function similar to getOptionValue() that returns last value
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CLI-218
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-218
> Project: Commons CLI
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: CLI-1.x
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Reporter: Sven
>
> Often, you can invoke command with the same option multiple time. For example
> java -cp test1 -cp test2
> even though the option only accepts one value.
> I believe, that the majority of programs then use the last value (test2 in
> this case).
> However, getOptionValue() return the first value for some weired reason.
> I believe, you should add a function called getLastOptionValue() (in class
> CommandLine) and getLastValue() (in class Option) to allow easy access to the
> last value.
