Yep, it's some kind of an advertisement, but for an open source project.

I made some experience with parsing command line options when working on an open source traffic simulation named SUMO (http://sumo.dlr.de) and decided to re-code the options library. It works similar to Python's argparse library - the options are defined first, then you may retrieve the values type-aware.

You may find more information on my blog pages: http://krajzewicz.de/blog/command-line-options.php

The library itself is hosted on github: - cpp-version: https://github.com/dkrajzew/optionslib_cpp - java-version: https://github.com/dkrajzew/optionslib_java
