3# The documentation claims:
4# If Getopt::Long::Descriptive is installed and any of the following command
5# line params are passed (--help, --usage, --?), the program will exit with
6# usage information...
7
8# This is not actually true (as of 0.29), as:
9# 1. the consuming class must set up a attributes named 'help', 'usage' and
10# '?' to contain these command line options, which is not clearly
11# documented as a requirement
12# 2. the code is checking whether an option was parsed into an attribute
13# *called* 'help', 'usage' or '?', not whether the option --help, --usage
14# or --? was passed on the command-line (the mapping could be different,
15# if cmd_flag or cmd_aliases is used),
16
17# This inconsistency is the underlying cause of RT#52474, RT#57683, RT#47865.
