2) better support long options 3) new flag '!' for bb_opt_complementally: produce bb_show_usage() if BB_GETOPT_ERROR internally

actually understand how to use the function myself :)

This is a first attempt to improve the comments of getopt_ulflags.c. Maybe under some aspects the text could be refined, but so far it is already usable and should help people who "avoided getopt_ulflags as the pest" to understand how it works. This patch was created with the help of Vodz, the author of the code, who explained me patiently how getopt_ulflags works and with the help of Paul Fox, who corrected my broken english. So thanks and merits should go to them also.

Ok. I found my mistake :( The trivial patch attached. --w vodz
2004-02-04The variable 'complementaly' used to be allocated with calloc, which zeroed itEric Andersen
out during the allocation process. When vodz changed it to be allocated on the stack, he forgot to explicitly zero it, leaving its value filled with whatever used to be sitting on the stack. It would garbage values, depending on the garbage that happened to be sitting on the stack when the function was called. The result was that applets using bb_getopt_ulflags() were showing unpredictable behavior (such as segfaults), which naturally broke many things.

Manuel, I rewrite bb_getopt_ulflags() function for more universal usage. My version support now: - options with arguments (optional arg as GNU extension also) - complementaly and/or incomplementaly and/or incongruously and/or list options - long_opt (all applets may have long option, add supporting is trivial) This realisation full compatibile from your version. Code size grow 480 bytes, but only coreutils/* over compensate this size after using new function. Last patch reduced over 800 bytes and not full applied to all. "mkdir" and "mv" applets have long_opt now for demonstrate trivial addition support long_opt with usage new bb_getopt_ulflags(). Complementaly and/or incomplementaly and/or incongruously and/or list options logic is not trivial, but new "cut" and "grep" applets using this logic for examples with full demostrating. New "grep" applet reduced over 300 bytes. Mark, Also. I removed bug from "grep" applet. $ echo a b | busybox grep -e a b a b a b But right is printing one only. --w vodz
