     1.9 +@param argc
    1.10 +@param argv
    1.11 +@param optstring
    1.12 +@param longopts
    1.13 +@param longindex
    1.14 +@return   If the flag field in struct option
    1.15 +is NULL, getopt_long returns the value specified in the val field, which is usually just the corresponding short option.
    1.16 +If flag is not NULL, this function returns 0 and stores val in the location pointed to by flag. This function returns ' : '
    1.17 +if there was a missing option argument, ' ? '
    1.18 +if the user specified an unknown or ambiguous option, and
    1.19 +-1 when the argument list has been exhausted.
    1.20 +
    1.21 +
    1.22 +  The getopt_long function is similar to getopt but it accepts options in two forms: words and characters.
    1.23 +The getopt_long function provides a superset of the functionality of getopt .
    1.24 +The getopt_long function
    1.25 +can be used in two ways.
    1.26 +In the first way, every long option understood
    1.27 +by the program has a corresponding short option, and the option
    1.28 +structure is only used to translate from long options to short
    1.29 +options.
    1.30 +When used in this fashion, getopt_long behaves identically to getopt .
    1.31 +This is a good way to add long option processing to an existing program
    1.32 +with the minimum of rewriting.
    1.33 +
    1.34 + In the second mechanism, a long option sets a flag in the option
    1.35 +structure passed, or will store a pointer to the command line argument
    1.36 +in the option
    1.37 +structure passed to it for options that take arguments.
    1.38 +Additionally,
    1.39 +the long option's argument may be specified as a single argument with
    1.40 +an equal sign, e.g.,
    1.41 +
    1.42 +@code
    1.43 +myprogram --myoption=somevalue 
    1.44 +@endcode
    1.45 +    
    1.46 +When a long option is processed, the call to getopt_long will return 0.
    1.47 +For this reason, long option processing without
    1.48 +shortcuts is not backwards compatible with getopt . It is possible to combine these methods, providing for long options
    1.49 +processing with short option equivalents for some options.
    1.50 +Less
    1.51 +frequently used options would be processed as long options only. The getopt_long call requires a structure to be initialized describing the long
    1.52 +options.
    1.53 +@code
    1.54 +The structure is: struct option {
    1.55 +char *name;
    1.56 +int has_arg;
    1.57 +int *flag;
    1.58 +int val;
    1.59 +};
    1.60 +@endcode
    1.61 + The name field should contain the option name without the leading double dash.
    1.62 +
    1.63 + The has_arg field should be one of:
    1.64 +
    1.65 + no argument no argument to the option is expect required_argument  
    1.66 + an argument to the option is required optional_argument  an argument to the option may be presented.
    1.67 +
    1.68 + If flag is not NULL, then the integer pointed to by it will be set to the
    1.69 +value in the val field.
    1.70 +If the flag field is NULL, then the val field will be returned.
    1.71 +Setting flag to NULL and setting val to the corresponding short option will make this function act just
    1.72 +like getopt .
    1.73 +
    1.74 + If the longindex field is not NULL, then the integer pointed to by it will be set to the index of the long
    1.75 +option relative to longopts.
    1.76 +
    1.77 + The last element of the longopts array has to be filled with zeroes.

   1.154 +/** @fn  getopt(int argc, char * const argv[], const char *optstring)
   1.155 +@param argc
   1.156 +@param argv[]
   1.157 +@param optstring
   1.158 +@return   The getopt function returns the next known option character in optstring. If getopt encounters a character not found in optstring or if it detects a missing option argument, it returns ' ? ' (question mark). If optstring has a leading ' : ' then a missing option argument causes ' : ' to be returned instead of ' ?. ' In either case, the variable optopt is set to the character that caused the error. The getopt function returns -1 when the argument list is exhausted.
   1.159 +
   1.160 +  The getopt function incrementally parses a command line argument list argv and returns the next known option character.
   1.161 +An option character is known if it has been specified in the string of accepted option characters, optstring.
   1.162 +
   1.163 + The option string optstring may contain the following elements: individual characters 
   1.164 +  and characters followed by a colon to indicate an option argument is to follow. 
   1.165 +  For example, an option string x recognizes an option "- x ", and an option string x: recognizes an option and argument "- x argument. " It does not matter to getopt if a following argument has leading white space.
   1.166 +
   1.167 + On return from getopt, optarg points to an option argument, if it is anticipated,
   1.168 +and the variable optind contains the index to the next argv argument for a subsequent call
   1.169 +to getopt. The variable optopt saves the last known option character returned by getopt.
   1.170 +
   1.171 + The variables opterr and optind are both initialized to 1.
   1.172 +The optind variable may be set to another value before a set of calls to getopt in order to skip over more or less argv entries.
   1.173 +
   1.174 + In order to use getopt to evaluate multiple sets of arguments, or to evaluate a single set of
   1.175 +arguments multiple times,
   1.176 +the variable optreset must be set to 1 before the second and each additional set of calls to getopt, and the variable optind must be reinitialized.
   1.177 +
   1.178 + The getopt function returns -1 when the argument list is exhausted.
   1.179 +The interpretation of options in the argument list may be cancelled
   1.180 +by the option ' -- '
   1.181 +(double dash) which causes getopt to signal the end of argument processing and return -1.
   1.182 +When all options have been processed (i.e., up to the first non-option
   1.183 +argument), getopt returns -1.

   1.240 +Diagnostics:
   1.241 + If the getopt function encounters a character not found in the string optstring or detects
   1.242 +a missing option argument it writes an error message to the stderr and returns ' ?. '
   1.243 +Setting opterr to a zero will disable these error messages.
   1.244 +If optstring has a leading ' : '
   1.245 +then a missing option argument causes a ' : '
   1.246 +to be returned in addition to suppressing any error messages. Option arguments are allowed to begin with "-";
   1.247 +this is reasonable but reduces the amount of error checking possible.
   1.248 +@see getopt_long()
   1.249 +
   1.250 +
   1.251 +Bugs:
   1.252 +
   1.253 + The getopt function was once specified to return EOF instead of -1.
   1.254 +This was changed by -p1003.2-92 to decouple getopt from \#include \< stdio.h \> A single dash "-" may be specified as a character in optstring, however it should never have an argument associated with it. This allows getopt to be used with programs that expect "-" as an option flag. This practice is wrong and should not be used in any 
   1.255 +  current development. It is provided for backward compatibility only. Care should be taken not to use ' - ' as the first character in optstring to avoid a semantic conflict with GNU getopt, which assigns different meaning to an optstring that begins with a ' -. ' By default, a single dash causes getopt to return -1. It is also possible to handle digits as option letters.
   1.256 +This allows getopt to be used with programs that expect a number ("-3")
   1.257 +as an option.
   1.258 +This practice is wrong, and should not be used in any current development.
   1.259 +It is provided for backward compatibility only. The following code fragment works in most cases.
