shell:cat hyphen ("-") option not activating STDIN.
---------------------------------------------------
Key: KARAF-754
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-754
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Bug
Components: karaf-admin
Affects Versions: 2.2.2
Reporter: Glen Mazza
Priority: Minor
According to the help for shell:cat, the - is supposed to activate cat for
STDIN (just as the Linux cat command does). However, the hyphen is being used
as an argument parsing flag and hence isn't working:
karaf@root> cat --help
DESCRIPTION
shell:cat
Displays the content of a file or URL.
SYNTAX
shell:cat [options] paths or urls
ARGUMENTS
paths or urls
A list of file paths or urls to display separated by
whitespaces
(use - for STDIN)
OPTIONS
--help Display this help message
-n The number the output lines, starting at 1.
karaf@root> shell:cat -
Error executing command shell:cat undefined option -
It may be sufficient to remove the STDIN option from the cat command, I'm not
sure how useful STDIN is within an OSGi command-line prompt anyway.
