=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Getopt::Long;
- $result = GetOptions (...option-descriptions...);
+ my $data = "file.dat";
+ my $length = 24;
+ my $verbose;
+ $result = GetOptions ("length=i" => \$length, # numeric
+ "file=s" => \$data, # string
+ "verbose" => \$verbose); # flag
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Getopt::Long supports two useful variants of simple options:
I<negatable> options and I<incremental> options.
-A negatable option is specified with a exclamation mark C<!> after the
+A negatable option is specified with an exclamation mark C<!> after the
option name:
my $verbose = ''; # option variable with default value (false)
To accomplish this behaviour, simply specify an array reference as the
destination for the option:
- my @libfiles = ();
GetOptions ("library=s" => \@libfiles);
-Used with the example above, C<@libfiles> would contain two strings
-upon completion: C<"lib/srdlib"> and C<"lib/extlib">, in that order.
-It is also possible to specify that only integer or floating point
-numbers are acceptible values.
+Alternatively, you can specify that the option can have multiple
+values by adding a "@", and pass a scalar reference as the
+destination:
+
+ GetOptions ("library=s@" => \$libfiles);
+
+Used with the example above, C<@libfiles> (or C<@$libfiles>) would
+contain two strings upon completion: C<"lib/srdlib"> and
+C<"lib/extlib">, in that order. It is also possible to specify that
+only integer or floating point numbers are acceptible values.
Often it is useful to allow comma-separated lists of values as well as
multiple occurrences of the options. This is easy using Perl's split()
and join() operators:
- my @libfiles = ();
GetOptions ("library=s" => \@libfiles);
@libfiles = split(/,/,join(',',@libfiles));
take, as value, strings of the form I<key>C<=>I<value>. The value will
be stored with the specified key in the hash.
- my %defines = ();
GetOptions ("define=s" => \%defines);
+Alternatively you can use:
+
+ GetOptions ("define=s%" => \$defines);
+
When used with command line options:
--define os=linux --define vendor=redhat
-the hash C<%defines> will contain two keys, C<"os"> with value
-C<"linux> and C<"vendor"> with value C<"redhat">.
-It is also possible to specify that only integer or floating point
-numbers are acceptible values. The keys are always taken to be strings.

=head2 User-defined subroutines to handle options
an option is encountered on the command line can be achieved by
designating a reference to a subroutine (or an anonymous subroutine)
as the option destination. When GetOptions() encounters the option, it
-will call the subroutine with two arguments: the name of the option,
-and the value to be assigned. It is up to the subroutine to store the
-value, or do whatever it thinks is appropriate.
+will call the subroutine with two or three arguments. The first
+argument is the name of the option. For a scalar or array destination,
+the second argument is the value to be stored. For a hash destination,
+the second arguments is the key to the hash, and the third argument
+the value to be stored. It is up to the subroutine to store the value,
+or do whatever it thinks is appropriate.
A trivial application of this mechanism is to implement options that
are related to each other. For example:
The argument specification can be
-=over
+=over 4
=item !
The option does not take an argument and may be negated, i.e. prefixed
by "no". E.g. C<"foo!"> will allow C<--foo> (a value of 1 will be
-assigned) and C<--nofoo> (a value of 0 will be assigned). If the
+assigned) and C<--nofoo> and C<--no-foo> (a value of 0 will be assigned). If the
option has aliases, this applies to the aliases as well.
Using negation on a single letter option when bundling is in effect is
The option requires an argument of the given type. Supported types
are:
-=over
+=over 4
=item s
Integer. An optional leading plus or minus sign, followed by a
sequence of digits.
+=item o
+
+Extended integer, Perl style. This can be either an optional leading
+plus or minus sign, followed by a sequence of digits, or an octal
+string (a zero, optionally followed by '0', '1', .. '7'), or a
+hexadecimal string (C<0x> followed by '0' .. '9', 'a' .. 'f', case
+insensitive), or a binary string (C<0b> followed by a series of '0'
+and '1').
+
=item f
Real number. For example C<3.14>, C<-6.23E24> and so on.
Note that if a string argument starts with C<-> or C<-->, it will be
considered an option on itself.
+=item : I<number> [ I<desttype> ]
+
+Like C<:i>, but if the value is omitted, the I<number> will be assigned.
+
+=item : + [ I<desttype> ]
+
+Like C<:i>, but if the value is omitted, the current value for the
+option will be incremented.

+=item VersionMessage
+
+This subroutine provides a standard version message. Its argument can be:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+A string containing the text of a message to print I<before> printing
+the standard message.
+
+=item *
+
+A numeric value corresponding to the desired exit status.

+
+A reference to a hash.
+
+=back
+
+If more than one argument is given then the entire argument list is
+assumed to be a hash. If a hash is supplied (either as a reference or
+as a list) it should contain one or more elements with the following
+keys:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<-message>
+
+=item C<-msg>
+
+The text of a message to print immediately prior to printing the
+program's usage message.
+
+=item C<-exitval>
+
+The desired exit status to pass to the B<exit()> function.
+This should be an integer, or else the string "NOEXIT" to
+indicate that control should simply be returned without
+terminating the invoking process.
+
+=item C<-output>
+
+A reference to a filehandle, or the pathname of a file to which the
+usage message should be written. The default is C<\*STDERR> unless the
+exit value is less than 2 (in which case the default is C<\*STDOUT>).

option parsing. These errors are signalled using warn() and can be
trapped with C<$SIG{__WARN__}>.

-=head2 Warning: Ignoring '!' modifier for short option
+=head2 GetOptions does not return a false result when an option is not supplied
-This warning is issued when the '!' modifier is applied to a short
-(one-character) option and bundling is in effect. E.g.,
+That's why they're called 'options'.
- Getopt::Long::Configure("bundling");
- GetOptions("foo|f!" => \$foo);
+=head2 GetOptions does not split the command line correctly
-Note that older Getopt::Long versions did not issue a warning, because
-the '!' modifier was applied to the first name only. This bug was
-fixed in 2.22.
+The command line is not split by GetOptions, but by the command line
+interpreter (CLI). On Unix, this is the shell. On Windows, it is
+COMMAND.COM or CMD.EXE. Other operating systems have other CLIs.
-Solution: separate the long and short names and apply the '!' to the
-long names only, e.g.,
+It is important to know that these CLIs may behave different when the
+command line contains special characters, in particular quotes or
+backslashes. For example, with Unix shells you can use single quotes
+(C<'>) and double quotes (C<">) to group words together. The following
+alternatives are equivalent on Unix:
- GetOptions("foo!" => \$foo, "f" => \$foo);

+In case of doubt, insert the following statement in front of your Perl
