Patrick Woodworth updated IVY-952:
----------------------------------

    Description: Currently it is impossible to pass any arguments which start 
with the dash character through to the class specified by the "-main" argument 
in standalone mode.  The attached patch makes the command-line parser recognize 
the special getopt-style "--" argument which tells the parser to stop parsing 
for known arguments and simply pass all subsequent tokens on to the main method 
of the class being invoked.  (was: Currently it is impossible to pass any

subsequent tokens on to the main method of the class being invoked.)

> Support for passing arbitrary arguments to the -main invoked class when using 
> the standalone mode is severely limited.
