+ * CommandLine interpreter that uses reflection to initialize an annotated user object with values obtained from the + * command line arguments. + *
+ * The full user manual is hosted at https://picocli.info. + *
Example
+ *+ * An example that implements {@code Callable} and uses the {@link #execute(String...) CommandLine.execute} convenience API to run in a single line of code: + *
+ *
+ * @Command(name = "checksum", mixinStandardHelpOptions = true, version = "checksum 4.0",
+ * description = "Prints the checksum (SHA-1 by default) of a file to STDOUT.")
+ * class CheckSum implements Callable<Integer> {
+ *
+ * @Parameters(index = "0", description = "The file whose checksum to calculate.")
+ * private File file;
+ *
+ * @Option(names = {"-a", "--algorithm"}, description = "MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, ...")
+ * private String algorithm = "SHA-1";
+ *
+ * @Override
+ * public Integer call() throws Exception { // your business logic goes here...
+ * byte[] fileContents = Files.readAllBytes(file.toPath());
+ * byte[] digest = MessageDigest.getInstance(algorithm).digest(fileContents);
+ * System.out.printf("%0" + (digest.length*2) + "x%n", new BigInteger(1,digest));
+ * return 0;
+ * }
+ *
+ * // CheckSum implements Callable, so parsing, error handling and handling user
+ * // requests for usage help or version help can be done with one line of code.
+ * public static void main(String[] args) {
+ * int exitCode = new CommandLine(new CheckSum()).execute(args);
+ * System.exit(exitCode);
+ * }
+ * }
+ *
+ * Another example where the application calls {@code parseArgs} and takes responsibility + * for error handling and checking whether the user requested help:
+ *import static io.mosn.coder.cli.CommandLine.*;
+ *
+ * @Command(mixinStandardHelpOptions = true, version = "v3.0.0",
+ * header = "Encrypt FILE(s), or standard input, to standard output or to the output file.")
+ * public class Encrypt {
+ *
+ * @Parameters(description = "Any number of input files")
+ * private List<File> files = new ArrayList<File>();
+ *
+ * @Option(names = { "-o", "--out" }, description = "Output file (default: print to console)")
+ * private File outputFile;
+ *
+ * @Option(names = { "-v", "--verbose"}, description = "Verbose mode. Helpful for troubleshooting. Multiple -v options increase the verbosity.")
+ * private boolean[] verbose;
+ * }
+ *
+ * + * Use {@code CommandLine} to initialize a user object as follows: + *
+ * public static void main(String... args) {
+ * Encrypt encrypt = new Encrypt();
+ * try {
+ * ParseResult parseResult = new CommandLine(encrypt).parseArgs(args);
+ * if (!CommandLine.printHelpIfRequested(parseResult)) {
+ * runProgram(encrypt);
+ * }
+ * } catch (ParameterException ex) { // command line arguments could not be parsed
+ * System.err.println(ex.getMessage());
+ * ex.getCommandLine().usage(System.err);
+ * }
+ * }
+ * + * Invoke the above program with some command line arguments. The below are all equivalent: + *
+ *+ * --verbose --out=outfile in1 in2 + * --verbose --out outfile in1 in2 + * -v --out=outfile in1 in2 + * -v -o outfile in1 in2 + * -v -o=outfile in1 in2 + * -vo outfile in1 in2 + * -vo=outfile in1 in2 + * -v -ooutfile in1 in2 + * -vooutfile in1 in2 + *+ *
