NAME¶
Getopt::Long::Parser - Getopt::Long object-oriented interface
SYNOPSIS¶
use Getopt::Long::Parser; my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser->new; $p->configure( %options ); if ( $p->getoptions( @options ) ) { ... } if ( $p->getoptionsfromarray( \@array, @options ) ) { ... }
Configuration options can be passed to the constructor:
my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser->new( config => [ %options ] );
DESCRIPTION¶
"Getopt::Long::Parser" is an object-oriented interface to Getopt::Long. See its documentation for configuration and use.
Note that "Getopt::Long" and "Getopt::Long::Parser" are not object-oriented. "Getopt::Long::Parser" emulates an object-oriented interface, which should be okay for most purposes.
CONSTRUCTOR¶
my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser->new( %options );
The constructor takes an optional hash with parameters.
- config
- An array reference with configuration settings. See "Configuring Getopt::Long" in Getopt::Long for all possible settings.
METHODS¶
In the examples, $p is assumed to be the result of a call to the constructor.
configure¶
$p->configure( %settings );
Update the current config settings. See "Configuring Getopt::Long" in Getopt::Long for all possible settings.
getoptionsfromarray¶
my $res = $p->getoptionsfromarray( $aref, @opts );
getoptions¶
my $res = $p->getoptions( @opts );
The same as "getoptionsfromarray( \@ARGV, @opts )".
