For long options, print: * the option as specified by the user if it's unknown * the cannoncial long option if its argument is not a number (and should be) And for missing arguments, print both the short and the long option name. (Doing only one of those would require either parsing argv ourselves or let getopt print the errors, since we can't tell long and short options apart by optopt or longindex) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=949373 --- v1: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-April/msg01653.html tools/virsh.c | 23 +++++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/virsh.c b/tools/virsh.c index 6ec2f7b..ac86608 100644 --- a/tools/virsh.c +++ b/tools/virsh.c @@ -2978,7 +2978,8 @@ vshAllowedEscapeChar(char c) static bool vshParseArgv(vshControl *ctl, int argc, char **argv) { - int arg, len, debug; + int arg, len, debug, i; + int longindex = -1; struct option opt[] = { {"debug", required_argument, NULL, 'd'}, {"help", no_argument, NULL, 'h'}, @@ -2995,11 +2996,12 @@ vshParseArgv(vshControl *ctl, int argc, char **argv) /* Standard (non-command) options.
