[jira] [Updated] (CLI-309) MissingArgumentException when
DefaultParser processes an option value which starts with hyphen/dash.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-309?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
ilia updated CLI-309:
---------------------
Description:
When processing option value which starts with hyphen/dash like *-sec-attr -password1* , exception [1] occurs. If the current token start with dash, it will be processed as an option and therefore this will not be set as a value to the previous option, which will cause [1]. The only way to set such value is to use equals sign like *-sec-attr=-password1*. In this case the whole token is processed as option=value pair and the correct value will be set.
