[jira] Created: (CLI-192) single character arguments are wrongly
interpreted as short options
single character arguments are wrongly interpreted as short options
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CLI-192
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-192
Project: Commons CLI
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1
Environment: linux
Reporter: dave rodgman
If I have a command line which supports "-o" or equivalently "--option", and "-foo", then
--foo o
gets interpreted as if I had typed "--foo -o", i.e. the "o" is (wrongly) seen as an option instead of an argument to "--foo". Foo then (wrongly) has no arguments.

[jira] Updated: (CLI-192) single character arguments are wrongly

Emmanuel Bourg updated CLI-192:
-------------------------------
Description:
If I have a command line which supports "-o"
or equivalently "--option", and "-foo", then
--foo o
gets interpreted as if I had typed "--foo -o", i.e. the "o" is (wrongly) seen as an option
instead of an argument to "--foo". Foo then (wrongly) has no arguments.

[jira] Commented: (CLI-192) single character arguments are wrongly
interpreted as short options
Posted by "Emmanuel Bourg (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.

Emmanuel Bourg commented on CLI-192:
------------------------------------
I tried to reproduce your issue with this test:
{code}
Options options = new Options();
options.addOption(OptionBuilder.withLongOpt("option").create("o"));
options.addOption(OptionBuilder.withLongOpt("foo").hasArg().create());
CommandLine cmd = parser.parse(options, new String[] { "--foo", "o" });
assertTrue(cmd.hasOption("foo"));
assertFalse(cmd.hasOption("o"));
assertEquals("o", cmd.getOptionValue("foo"));
{code}
I ran it against CLI 1.1 and 1.2, with the Posix, GNU and Basic parsers. It worked every time. It works also with the default parser on the trunk.
Could you show me how you configured your options please?

Emmanuel Bourg resolved CLI-192.

Resolution: Cannot Reproduce
I wasn't able to reproduce the issue. Please reopen and attach a test case if you encounter this issue with the code from the trunk.

------------------------------------
Dave do you have a code snippet that reproduces this issue? The parser you used and the options you configured matter to understand the issue.
