NAME
Getopt::Long::Util - Utilities for Getopt::Long
VERSION
This document describes version 0.76 of Getopt::Long::Util (from Perl distribution Getopt-Long-Util), released on 2014-07-23.
FUNCTIONS
parse_getopt_long_opt_spec($str) => hash
Parse Getopt::Long option specification. Will produce a hash with some keys: opts (array of option names), type (string, type name), desttype (either '', or '@' or '%'), is_neg (true for --opt!), is_inc (true for --opt+), min_vals (int, usually 0 or 1), max_vals (int, usually 0 or 1 except for option that requires multiple values), normalized (string, normalized form of $str: '--' prefix will be stripped, options will be sorted). Will return undef if it can't parse $str. Examples:
$res = parse_getopt_long_opt_spec('help|h|?'); # {opts=>['?','h','help'], type=>undef, num_vals=>1}
$res = parse_getopt_long_opt_spec('--foo=s'); # {opts=>['foo'], type=>'s', num_vals=>1}humanize_getopt_long_opt_spec($str) => str
Convert Getopt::Long option specification like help|h|? or <--foo=s> or debug! into, respectively, --help, -h, -? or --foo=s or --(no)debug. Will die if can't parse $str. The output is suitable for including in help/usage text.
