arg |
GLib.OptionArg
|
r/w |
The type of the option, as a GLib.OptionArg |
arg_data |
object
|
r/w |
If the arg type is GLib.OptionArg.CALLBACK, then arg_data must point to a GLib.OptionArgFunc callback function, which will be called to handle the extra argument. Otherwise, arg_data is a pointer to a location to store the value, the required type of the location depends on the arg type: * GLib.OptionArg.NONE: bool * GLib.OptionArg.STRING: str * GLib.OptionArg.INT: int * GLib.OptionArg.FILENAME: str * GLib.OptionArg.STRING_ARRAY: str * GLib.OptionArg.FILENAME_ARRAY: str * GLib.OptionArg.DOUBLE: float If arg type is GLib.OptionArg.STRING or GLib.OptionArg.FILENAME, the location will contain a newly allocated string if the option was given. That string needs to be freed by the callee using GLib.free(). Likewise if arg type is GLib.OptionArg.STRING_ARRAY or GLib.OptionArg.FILENAME_ARRAY, the data should be freed using GLib.strfreev(). |
arg_description |
str
|
r/w |
The placeholder to use for the extra argument parsed by the option in --help output. The arg_description is translated using the translate_func of the group, see GLib.OptionGroup.set_translation_domain(). |
description |
str
|
r/w |
the description for the option in --help output. The description is translated using the translate_func of the group, see GLib.OptionGroup.set_translation_domain(). |
flags |
int
|
r/w |
Flags from GLib.OptionFlags |
long_name |
str
|
r/w |
The long name of an option can be used to specify it in a commandline as --long_name. Every option must have a long name. To resolve conflicts if multiple option groups contain the same long name, it is also possible to specify the option as --groupname-long_name. |
short_name |
int
|
r/w |
If an option has a short name, it can be specified -short_name in a commandline. short_name must be a printable ASCII character different from ‘-’, or zero if the option has no short name. |
