The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is zero. The field `has_arg' is: no_argument (or 0) if the option does not take an argument, required_argument (or 1) if the option requires an argument, optional_argument (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument. If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but left unchanged if the option is not found. To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is one). For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt' returns the contents of the `val' field. */ struct option { # if (defined __STDC__ && __STDC__) || defined __cplusplus const char *name; # else char *name; # endif /* has_arg can't be an enum because some compilers complain about type mismatches in all the code that assumes it is an int. */ int has_arg; int *flag; int val; }; /* Names for the values of the `has_arg' field of `struct option'. */ # define no_argument 0 # define required_argument 1 # define optional_argument 2 #endif /* need getopt */ /* Get definitions and prototypes for functions to process the arguments in ARGV (ARGC of them, minus the program name) for options given in OPTS. Return the option character from OPTS just read. Return -1 when there are no more options. For unrecognized options, or options missing arguments, `optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is returned. The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter takes an argument, to be placed in `optarg'. If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is optional. This behavior is specific to the GNU `getopt'. The argument `--' causes premature termination of argument scanning, explicitly telling `getopt' that there are no more options. If OPTS begins with `--', then non-option arguments are treated as arguments to the option '\0'.
