That is not what I intended, at least. int one = 0, two = 0; struct option options[] = { OPT_CMDMODE('a', NULL, &one, N_("set one to a"), 'a'), OPT_CMDMODE('b', NULL, &one, N_("set one to b"), 'b'), OPT_CMDMODE('c', NULL, &two, N_("set two to c"), 'c'), OPT_CMDMODE('d', NULL, &two, N_("set two to d"), 'd'), OPT_END() } should give you two independent sets of modes, one and two. The only reason I needed to add an extra parameter to get_value() was so that I can tell the former two and the latter two belong to different groups, and that is done by looking at the address of the variable. In opt_command_mode_error(), opt->value == that->value is used as a condition to see if the other option is possibly the one that was used previously, which conflicted with us. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
