The concrete type describing the behavior associated with a keyword.

Sourcetype key = string

Sourcetype doc = string

Sourcetype usage_msg = string

Sourcetype anon_fun = string -> unit

Source

val parse_dynamic : 
  (key * spec * doc) list ref ->
  anon_fun ->
  usage_msg ->
  unit

Same as Arg.parse, except that the speclist argument is a reference and may be updated during the parsing. A typical use for this feature is to parse command lines of the form:

command subcommand options where the list of options depends on the value of the subcommand argument.

since 4.01.0

Source

val parse_argv : 
  ?current:int ref ->
  string array ->
  (key * spec * doc) list ->
  anon_fun ->
  usage_msg ->
  unit

Arg.parse_argv ~current args speclist anon_fun usage_msg parses the array args as if it were the command line. It uses and updates the value of ~current (if given), or Arg.current. You must set it before calling parse_argv. The initial value of current is the index of the program name (argument 0) in the array. If an error occurs, Arg.parse_argv raises Arg.Bad with the error message as argument. If option -help or --help is given, Arg.parse_argv raises Arg.Help with the help message as argument.

Source

val parse_argv_dynamic : 
  ?current:int ref ->
  string array ->
  (key * spec * doc) list ref ->
  anon_fun ->
  string ->
  unit

Same as Arg.parse_argv, except that the speclist argument is a reference and may be updated during the parsing. See Arg.parse_dynamic.

since 4.01.0

Source

val parse_and_expand_argv_dynamic : 
  int ref ->
  string array ref ->
  (key * spec * doc) list ref ->
  anon_fun ->
  string ->
  unit

Same as Arg.parse_argv_dynamic, except that the argv argument is a reference and may be updated during the parsing of Expand arguments. See Arg.parse_argv_dynamic.

since 4.05.0

Sourceval parse_expand : (key * spec * doc) list -> anon_fun -> usage_msg -> unit

Same as Arg.parse, except that the Expand arguments are allowed and the current reference is not updated.

since 4.05.0

Sourceexception Help of string

Raised by Arg.parse_argv when the user asks for help.

Sourceexception Bad of string

Functions in spec or anon_fun can raise Arg.Bad with an error message to reject invalid arguments. Arg.Bad is also raised by Arg.parse_argv in case of an error.

Sourceval usage_string : (key * spec * doc) list -> usage_msg -> string

Returns the message that would have been printed by Arg.usage, if provided with the same parameters.

Sourceval current : int ref

Position (in Sys.argv) of the argument being processed. You can change this value, e.g. to force Arg.parse to skip some arguments. Arg.parse uses the initial value of Arg.current as the index of argument 0 (the program name) and starts parsing arguments at the next element.

Sourceval read_arg : string -> string array

Arg.read_arg file reads newline-terminated command line arguments from file file.

since 4.05.0

Sourceval read_arg0 : string -> string array

Identical to Arg.read_arg but assumes null character terminated command line arguments.

since 4.05.0

Sourceval write_arg : string -> string array -> unit

Arg.write_arg file args writes the arguments args newline-terminated into the file file. If the any of the arguments in args contains a newline, use Arg.write_arg0 instead.

since 4.05.0

Sourceval write_arg0 : string -> string array -> unit

Identical to Arg.write_arg but uses the null character for terminator instead of newline.

since 4.05.0
