61 The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
62 of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
63 zero.
65 The field `has_arg' is:
66 no_argument (or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
67 required_argument (or 1) if the option requires an argument,
68 optional_argument (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
70 If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
71 to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
72 left unchanged if the option is not found.
74 To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
75 a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
76 option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
77 value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
78 one). For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
79 returns the contents of the `val' field. */
