------------------------------
Issue Type: Task (was: Improvement)
> Bump commons-cli to 1.4
> -----------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-14604
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14604
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Command Line Client
> Reporter: Wei Zhong
> Priority: Major

> Currently flink is using commons-cli 1.3.1. There is a [bug|https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/CLI/issues/CLI-265] in it which prevent us from using options that accept variable arguments in command line.
> To be precise, it prevents us from accepting a short-name option after a varargs option because there is a problem in the implementation of DefaultParser#isShortOption() method in commons-cli 1.3.1:
> {code:java}
> /**
> * Tells if the token looks like a short option.
> *
> * @param token
> */
> private boolean isShortOption(String token)
> {
> // short options (-S, -SV, -S=V, -SV1=V2, -S1S2)
> // PROBLEM: It assumes that short option only has single character,
> // but in fact we have many multi-characters short options.
> return token.startsWith("-") && token.length() >= 2 && options.hasShortOption(token.substring(1, 2));
> }
> {code}
> If we bump the version to 1.4, we can solve this problem.
> I request this change because there are 2 varargs options which hit this bug in the design of command line options of [Python UDF Dependency Management|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-78%3A+Flink+Python+UDF+Environment+and+Dependency+Management]. It will be great helpful if we can bump the commons-cli version to 1.4 :).
> The commons-cli 1.4 is also a stable version which released at Mar, 2017. And today its usage statistic is greater than 1.3.1 on [maven central repository|https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/commons-cli/commons-cli].
> I have pushed the change to my own travis to check if it breaks something. This is the [link|https://travis-ci.org/WeiZhong94/flink/builds/607438208] and it seems that everything is fine.
