Description (last modified by )
needed for ticket:413
I get the following error:
./psd --min-temp="-60" psd: : invalid option -- 6 Try `psd --help' for more information.
I've tried
./psd --min-temp=-60 ./psd --min-temp -60
and they all give the same error.

The problem is that Option::parse
is taking arguments by value. In end of parse in OptionArg? there is a call ++first
, but this has no effect outside in CommandLine so iterator pointing to current parameter is then pointing to "-6" and there is no such option. If replacing "-6" with "6", the "6" is detected not to be an option (since it doesn't start with '-') and that element is just ignored (see ticket:413). This also implies that if ticket:413 is implemented (the "6" is not ignored) this will cause a problem, so it probably better to fix this first.
I was hoping to fix this within 0.4 but I'll give up since it is more or less impossible without changing the interface.

(In [1431]) refs #418 - added a test for this bug. The test is not active in the sense it does not affect the retunred value, but in verbose mode there is some output.
