I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.
This is a complete reimplementation of CArgsParser with a different API.
Now, CArgsParser properly supports and distinguishes between:
* Positional arguments (required or not)
* Options
Options can be short and/or long.
The API allows you to add custom option and argument types. A few types are
pre-implemented for convenience:
* Boolean options (take no value)
* String and integer options (take a required value)
* String and integer arguments
* Vector-of-string arguments
This commit doesn't include changes for all the users of CArgsParser (see next
commit for that).
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
CArgsParser::parse_next_param did not properly ensure that, when
a param required a following argument, there were enough parameters left to
complete the parse. This meant that params_left could become negative,
avoiding parse_next_param's termination condition, and cause a segfault
when reading from argv with an out of bounds index.
This fixes the check to ensure that we do in fact have the right amount
of parameters and also adds an assertion to ensure that params_left does
not become negative.
