[jira] Closed: (CLI-138) No '--' option for terminating options processing

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-138?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Henri Yandell closed CLI-138.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I think there's enough interest in 2.0 for us to start pushing in that direction.

There are a bunch of issues closed already with "2.0 does this", so this issue is going to go the same way. Marking as WONTFIX.

> It appears that neither 1.0 not 1.1 have a '--' option as the 'end processing options' option.  This is immensely useful to allow parameter that are not options that start with a hyphen.  grep for example does this.  I think it is a bug rather than an enhancement request, I think Commons CLI should support '--' option.
