[jira] Commented: (CLI-192) single character arguments are wrongly interpreted as short options

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-192?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12877877#action_12877877 ] 

Emmanuel Bourg commented on CLI-192:
------------------------------------

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.

>    Affects Versions: 1.1
>         Environment: linux

> 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.
