--------------------------------

             Summary: LongOpt falsely detected as ambiguous
                 Key: CLI-252
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-252
             Project: Commons CLI
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Parser
    Affects Versions: 1.3
         Environment: Windows 7, JDK 1.8.0v45
            Reporter: Simon Harrer
             Fix For: 1.2


Options options = new Options();       options.addOption(Option.builder().longOpt("importToOpen").hasArg().argName("FILE").build());
options.addOption(Option.builder("i").longOpt("import").hasArg().argName("FILE").build());

Parsing "--import=FILE" is not possible since 1.3 as it throws a AmbiguousOptionException stating that it cannot decide whether import is import or importToOpen. In 1.2 this is not an issue. 

The root lies in the new DefaultParser which das s startsWith check.
