22 * @Short_description: parses commandline options
23 * @Title: Commandline option parser
25 * The GOption commandline parser is intended to be a simpler replacement
26 * for the popt library. It supports short and long commandline options,
27 * as shown in the following example:
29 * <literal>testtreemodel -r 1 --max-size 20 --rand --display=:1.0 -vb -- file1 file2</literal>
31 * The example demonstrates a number of features of the GOption
33 * <itemizedlist><listitem><para>
34 * Options can be single letters, prefixed by a single dash. Multiple
35 * short options can be grouped behind a single dash.
36 * </para></listitem><listitem><para>
37 * Long options are prefixed by two consecutive dashes.
38 * </para></listitem><listitem><para>
39 * Options can have an extra argument, which can be a number, a string or
40 * a filename. For long options, the extra argument can be appended with
41 * an equals sign after the option name, which is useful if the extra
42 * argument starts with a dash, which would otherwise cause it to be
43 * interpreted as another option.
44 * </para></listitem><listitem><para>
45 * Non-option arguments are returned to the application as rest arguments.
46 * </para></listitem><listitem><para>
47 * An argument consisting solely of two dashes turns off further parsing,
48 * any remaining arguments (even those starting with a dash) are returned
49 * to the application as rest arguments.
50 * </para></listitem></itemizedlist>
52 * Another important feature of GOption is that it can automatically
53 * generate nicely formatted help output. Unless it is explicitly turned
54 * off with g_option_context_set_help_enabled(), GOption will recognize
55 * the <option>--help</option>, <option>-?</option>,
56 * <option>--help-all</option> and
57 * <option>--help-</option><replaceable>groupname</replaceable> options
58 * (where <replaceable>groupname</replaceable> is the name of a
59 * #GOptionGroup) and write a text similar to the one shown in the
60 * following example to stdout.
62 * <informalexample><screen>
64 * testtreemodel [OPTION...] - test tree model performance
67 * -h, --help Show help options
68 * --help-all Show all help options
69 * --help-gtk Show GTK+ Options
71 * Application Options:
72 * -r, --repeats=N Average over N repetitions
73 * -m, --max-size=M Test up to 2^M items
74 * --display=DISPLAY X display to use
75 * -v, --verbose Be verbose
76 * -b, --beep Beep when done
77 * --rand Randomize the data
78 * </screen></informalexample>
80 * GOption groups options in #GOptionGroup<!-- -->s, which makes it easy to
81 * incorporate options from multiple sources. The intended use for this is
82 * to let applications collect option groups from the libraries it uses,
83 * add them to their #GOptionContext, and parse all options by a single call
84 * to g_option_context_parse(). See gtk_get_option_group() for an example.
86 * If an option is declared to be of type string or filename, GOption takes
87 * care of converting it to the right encoding; strings are returned in
88 * UTF-8, filenames are returned in the GLib filename encoding. Note that
89 * this only works if setlocale() has been called before
90 * g_option_context_parse().
92 * Here is a complete example of setting up GOption to parse the example
93 * commandline above and produce the example help output.

108 * { "rand", 0, 0, G_OPTION_ARG_NONE, &randomize, "Randomize the data", NULL },
113 * main (int argc, char *argv[])
115 * GError *error = NULL;
116 * GOptionContext *context;
118 * context = g_option_context_new ("- test tree model performance");
119 * g_option_context_add_main_entries (context, entries, GETTEXT_PACKAGE);
120 * g_option_context_add_group (context, gtk_get_option_group (TRUE));
121 * if (!g_option_context_parse (context, &argc, &argv, &error))
123 * g_print ("option parsing failed: %s\n", error->message);
130 * </programlisting></informalexample>
132 * On UNIX systems, the argv that is passed to main() has no particular
133 * encoding, even to the extent that different parts of it may have
134 * different encodings. In general, normal arguments and flags will be
135 * in the current locale and filenames should be considered to be opaque
136 * byte strings. Proper use of %G_OPTION_ARG_FILENAME vs
137 * %G_OPTION_ARG_STRING is therefore important.
139 * Note that on Windows, filenames do have an encoding, but using
140 * #GOptionContext with the argv as passed to main() will result in a
141 * program that can only accept commandline arguments with characters
142 * from the system codepage. This can cause problems when attempting to
143 * deal with filenames containing Unicode characters that fall outside
146 * A solution to this is to use g_win32_get_command_line() and
147 * g_option_context_parse_strv() which will properly handle full Unicode
148 * filenames. If you are using #GApplication, this is done
149 * automatically for you.
151 * The following example shows how you can use #GOptionContext directly
152 * in order to correctly deal with Unicode filenames on Windows:
156 * main (int argc, char **argv)
158 * GError *error = NULL;
159 * GOptionContext *context;
163 * args = g_win32_get_command_line ();
165 * args = g_strdupv (argv);
168 * /* ... setup context ... */
170 * if (!g_option_context_parse_strv (context, &args, &error))
172 * /* ... error ... */

339 * "FILE1 FILE2...". If you are using #G_OPTION_REMAINING for
340 * collecting "rest" arguments, GLib handles this automatically by
341 * using the @arg_description of the corresponding #GOptionEntry in
344 * Another usage is to give a short summary of the program
345 * functionality, like " - frob the strings", which will be displayed
346 * in the same line as the usage. For a longer description of the
347 * program functionality that should be displayed as a paragraph
348 * below the usage line, use g_option_context_set_summary().
350 * Note that the @parameter_string is translated using the
