Hi,
TCustomApplication, fpc-2.6.0
./mycmdtool --inputfile=myfile withspace.txt
GetOptionValue('i','inputfile') returns only "myfile"
That is normal.
same thing happens if I try:
./mycmdtool "--inputfile=myfile withspace.txt"
./mycmdtool --inputfile="myfile withspace.txt"
./mycmdtool --inputfile='myfile withspace.txt'
This is not normal.
How to fix this (have param value with space) ? Any workarounds if it's bug in
TCustomApplication or whatever ?
I created the following TCustomApplication program:
procedure TMyApplication.DoRun;
var
ErrorMsg: String;
begin
writeln(getoptionvalue('f','file'));
Terminate;
end;
When run it prints the correct output:
araminta: >./tc --file='my file is here.txt'
my file is here.txt
araminta: >./tc '--file=my file is here.txt'
my file is here.txt
araminta: >./tc "--file=my file is here.txt"
my file is here.txt
So I doubt the problem is there. What gets printed if you do a
For I:=0 to ParamCount do
Writeln(Paramstr(i));
Just to rule out TCustomApplication.
You mention TProcessUTF8, that is a complicating factor.
You then need to see (using strace) what the calling app actually sends.
I suspect the problem is there.
Are you using the new 'parameters' or still the old 'CommandLine' ?
If the latter, then it is a safe bet that the problem is there.
Michael.
