NAME

Getopt::Long::Parser − Getopt::Long object−oriented interface

SYNOPSIS

use Getopt::Long::Parser;
my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser−>new;
$p−>configure( %options );
if ( $p−>getoptions( @options ) ) { ... }
if ( $p−>getoptionsfromarray( \@array, @options ) ) { ... }

Configuration options can be passed to the constructor:

my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser−>new( config => [ %options ] );

DESCRIPTION

"Getopt::Long::Parser" is an object−oriented interface to Getopt::Long. See its documentation for configuration and use.

Note that "Getopt::Long" and "Getopt::Long::Parser" are not object−oriented. "Getopt::Long::Parser" emulates an object−oriented interface, which should be okay for most purposes.

CONSTRUCTOR

my $p = Getopt::Long::Parser−>new( %options );

The constructor takes an optional hash with parameters.
config

An array reference with configuration settings. See "Configuring Getopt::Long" in Getopt::Long for all possible settings.

METHODS

In the examples, $p is assumed to be the result of a call to the constructor.

configure

$p−>configure( %settings );

Update the current config settings. See "Configuring Getopt::Long" in Getopt::Long for all possible settings.

getoptionsfromarray

my $res = $p−>getoptionsfromarray( $aref, @opts );

getoptions

my $res = $p−>getoptions( @opts );

The same as "getoptionsfromarray( \@ARGV, @opts )".
