Emmanuel Bourg commented on CLI-179:
------------------------------------
[~iweiss] That's only the first pass. If the parsing fails because --help and
--version are missing, you catch the exception and run a second pass with the
other options.
> 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.
