    Maybe the following comment before line 65:

    // len is the length of the current token starting at str

However, that's just a suggestion. Thumbs up.

Thanks David,

I just need a second reviewer and I'll push the fix.

However, I'm not sure that trailing characters are properly
detected. Do you consider that as a show stopper?

Depends on exactly what you mean by that. If extra junk characters are
ignored rather than causing an error that's okay to me.

They will be silently ignored.

Not a showstopper in that case.

So this looks good to go.

Frederic,

Sorry, of course

strncasecmp(str, "true", 4) == 0&& str[4] == 0

strncasecmp(str, "true", 4) == 0 would accept
arguments like this:

-all=truefalse

which are not valid.

Frederic,

I think explicit check for len is not necessary,

strncasecmp(str, "true", 4) == 0

is enough.

This is a small fix (2 lines) to fix an issue with the
parsing of boolean arguments by diagnostic commands

CR is not available on bugs.sun.com yet, but the description
says that the string comparisons to identify "true" or "false"
values doesn't take into account the length of the argument
being parse.

The suggested fix is:
