/***************************************************************************
getarg.c - routines to grab the parameters from the command line:
Names of all the routines except the main one start with GA (Get
Arguments) to prevent conflicts.
The following routines are available in this module:
1. int GAGetArgs(argc, argv, CtrlStr, Variables...)
where argc, argv are received on entry.
CtrlStr is the contrl string (see below)
Variables are all the variables to be set according to CtrlStr.
Note that all the variables MUST be transfered by address.
Return 0 on correct parsing, otherwise error number (see GetArg.h).
2. GAPrintHowTo(CtrlStr)
Print the control string to stderr, in the correct format.
This feature is very useful in case of an error during GetArgs parsing.
Chars equal to SPACE_CHAR are not printed (regular spaces are NOT
allowed, and so using SPACE_CHAR you can create space in PrintHowTo).
3. GAPrintErrMsg(Error)
Describe the error to stderr, according to Error (usually returned by
GAGetArgs).
CtrlStr format:
The control string passed to GetArgs controls the way argv (argc) are
parsed. Each entry in this string must not have any spaces in it. The
First Entry is the name of the program, which is usually ignored except
when GAPrintHowTo is called. All the other entries (except the last one
which we will come back to later) must have the following format:
1. One letter which sets the option letter.
2. '!' or '%' to determines if this option is really optional ('%') or
required ('!')...
3. '-' must always be given.
4. Alphanumeric string, usually ignored, but used by GAPrintHowTo to
print the meaning of this option.
5. Sequences starts with '!' or '%'. Again if '!' then this sequence
must exist (only if its option flag is given of course), and if '%'
it is optional. Each sequence will continue with one or two
characters which defines the kind of the input:
a: d, x, o, u - integer is expected (decimal, hex, octal base or unsigned).
b: D, X, O, U - long integer is expected (same as above).
c: f - float number is expected.
d: F - double number is expected.
e: s - string is expected.
f: *? - any number of '?' kind (d, x, o, u, D, X, O, U, f, F, s)
will match this one. If '?' is numeric, it scans until
non-numeric input is given. If '?' is 's' then it scans
up to the next option or end of argv.
If the last parameter given in the CtrlStr, is not an option (i.e. the
second char is not in ['!', '%'] and the third one is not '-'), all what
remained from argv is linked to it.
The variables passed to GAGetArgs (starting from 4th parameter) MUST
match the order of the CtrlStr:
For each option, one integer address must be passed. This integer must
be initialized with 0. If that option is given in the command line, it will
be set.
In addition, the sequences that might follow an option require the
following parameters to pass:
1. d, x, o, u - pointer to integer (int *).
2. D, X, O, U - pointer to long (long *).
3. f - pointer to float (float *).
4. F - pointer to double (double *).
5. s - pointer to char (char *). NO allocation is needed!
6. *? - TWO variables are passed for each wild request. the first
one is (address of) integer, and it will return number of
parameters actually matched this sequence, and the second
one is a pointer to pointer to ? (? **), and will return an
address to a block of pointers to ? kind, terminated with
NULL pointer. NO pre-allocation is required. The caller is
responsible for freeing this memory, including the pointed to
memory.
Note that these two variables are pretty like the argv/argc pair...
Examples:
"Example1 i%-OneInteger!d s%-Strings!*s j%- k!-Float!f Files"
Will match: Example1 -i 77 -s String1 String2 String3 -k 88.2 File1 File2
or: Example1 -s String1 -k 88.3 -i 999 -j
but not: Example1 -i 77 78 (option i expects one integer, k must be).
Note the option k must exist, and that the order of the options is not
important. In the first examples File1 & File2 will match the Files
in the command line.
A call to GAPrintHowTo with this CtrlStr will print to stderr:
Example1 [-i OneIngeter] [-s Strings...] [-j] -k Float Files...
Notes:
1. This module assumes that all the pointers to all kind of data types
have the same length and format, i.e. sizeof(int *) == sizeof(char *).
