Class LongOpt
public class LongOpt
extends Object
This object represents the definition of a long option in the Java port
of GNU getopt. An array of LongOpt objects is passed to the Getopt
object to define the list of valid long options for a given parsing
session. Refer to the getopt documentation for details on the
format of long options.

Getopt
static int | NO_ARGUMENT - Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument.
|
static int | OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT - Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument.
|
static int | REQUIRED_ARGUMENT - Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument.
|
protected StringBuffer | flag - If this variable is not null, then the value stored in "val" is stored
here when this long option is encountered.
|
protected int | has_arg - Indicates whether the option has no argument, a required argument, or
an optional argument.
|
protected String | name - The name of the long option
|
protected int | val - The value to store in "flag" if flag is not null, otherwise the
equivalent short option character for this long option.
|
LongOpt(String name, int has_arg, StringBuffer flag, int val) - Create a new LongOpt object with the given parameter values.
|
StringBuffer | getFlag() - Returns the value of the 'flag' field for this long option
|
int | getHasArg() - Returns the value set for the 'has_arg' field for this long option
|
String | getName() - Returns the name of this LongOpt as a String
|
int | getVal() - Returns the value of the 'val' field for this long option
|
NO_ARGUMENT
public static final int NO_ARGUMENT
Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument. This
value indicates that the option takes no argument.
- 0
OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT
public static final int OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT
Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument. This
value indicates that the option takes an argument that is optional.
- 2
REQUIRED_ARGUMENT
public static final int REQUIRED_ARGUMENT
Constant value used for the "has_arg" constructor argument. This
value indicates that the option takes an argument that is required.
- 1
flag
protected StringBuffer flag
If this variable is not null, then the value stored in "val" is stored
here when this long option is encountered. If this is null, the value
stored in "val" is treated as the name of an equivalent short option.
has_arg
protected int has_arg
Indicates whether the option has no argument, a required argument, or
an optional argument.
name
protected String name
The name of the long option
val
protected int val
The value to store in "flag" if flag is not null, otherwise the
equivalent short option character for this long option.
LongOpt
public LongOpt(String name,
int has_arg,
StringBuffer flag,
int val)
throws IllegalArgumentException
Create a new LongOpt object with the given parameter values. If the
value passed as has_arg is not valid, then an exception is thrown.
name
- The long option String.has_arg
- Indicates whether the option has no argument (NO_ARGUMENT), a required argument (REQUIRED_ARGUMENT) or an optional argument (OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT).flag
- If non-null, this is a location to store the value of "val" when this option is encountered, otherwise "val" is treated as the equivalent short option character.val
- The value to return for this long option, or the equivalent single letter option to emulate if flag is null.
getFlag
public StringBuffer getFlag()
Returns the value of the 'flag' field for this long option
- The value of 'flag'
getHasArg
public int getHasArg()
Returns the value set for the 'has_arg' field for this long option
- The value of 'has_arg'
getName
public String getName()
Returns the name of this LongOpt as a String
- Then name of the long option
getVal
public int getVal()
Returns the value of the 'val' field for this long option
- The value of 'val'
