// // Here's something you've all been waiting for: the AT&T public domain // source for getopt(3). It is the code which was given out at the 1985 // UNIFORUM conference in Dallas. I obtained it by electronic mail // directly from AT&T. The people there assure me that it is indeed // in the public domain. // // There is no manual page. That is because the one they gave out at // UNIFORUM was slightly different from the current System V Release 2 // manual page. The difference apparently involved a note about the // famous rules 5 and 6, recommending using white space between an option // and its first argument, and not grouping options that have arguments. // Getopt itself is currently lenient about both of these things White // space is allowed, but not mandatory, and the last option in a group can // have an argument. That particular version of the man page evidently // has no official existence, and my source at AT&T did not send a copy. // The current SVR2 man page reflects the actual behavor of this getopt. // However, I am not about to post a copy of anything licensed by AT&T. // // -- Andrew Derbyshire // #include #include #define index strchr #include "getopt.h" #define ERR(s,c) fprintf(stderr,"%s%s%c\n", argv[0],s,c) // // Globals used by the caller // int optind = 1; int optopt; char *optarg; int getopts(int argc, char **argv, char *opts) { static int sp = 1; register int c; register char *cp; if (optind < argc && argv[optind][0] == '-' && argv[optind][1] == '\0') if((cp=index(opts, '-')) != NULL) { optind++; return('-'); } else { optind++; return('?'); } if(sp == 1) if(optind >= argc || argv[optind][0] != '-' || argv[optind][1] == '\0') return(EOF); else if(strcmp(argv[optind], "--") == 0) { optind++; return(EOF); } optopt = c = argv[optind][sp]; if(c == ':' || (cp=index(opts, c)) == NULL) { ERR(": illegal option -- ", c); if(argv[optind][++sp] == '\0') { optind++; sp = 1; } return('?'); } if(*++cp == ':') { if(argv[optind][sp+1] != '\0') optarg = &argv[optind++][sp+1]; else if(++optind >= argc) { ERR(": option requires an argument -- ", c); sp = 1; return('?'); } else optarg = argv[optind++]; sp = 1; } else { if(argv[optind][++sp] == '\0') { sp = 1; optind++; } optarg = NULL; } return(c); }
