man optionLoadLine (Fonctions bibliothèques) - process a string for an option name and value

NAME

optionLoadLine - process a string for an option name and value

SYNOPSIS

#include <your-opts.h>

cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -lopts [...] void optionLoadLine(tOptions* pOpts, const char* pzLine);

DESCRIPTION

This is a client program callable routine for setting options from, for example, the contents of a file that they read in. Only one option may appear in the text. It will be treated as a normal (non-preset) option.

When passed a pointer to the option struct and a string, it will find the option named by the first token on the string and set the option argument to the remainder of the string. The caller must NUL terminate the string. Any embedded new lines will be included in the option argument. If the input looks like one or more quoted strings, then the input will be "cooked". The "cooking" is identical to the string formation used in AutoGen definition files (@pxref{basic expression}), except that you may not use backquotes.

pOpts
program options descriptor
pzLine
NUL-terminated text

ERRORS

Invalid options are silently ignored. Invalid option arguments will cause a warning to print, but the function should return.
