Argumentum Versions Save

Added

• It is possible to collect parameters that will be forwarded to a subprocess. The syntax is similar to the one used in GCC.
• Multiple names can be defined for meta-varaiables in metavar() by specifying a list of strings instead of a simple string.
• Added the method add as an alias for add_parameter.
• The method absent is now an alias for default_value.
• Added shell tests for various library usage scenarios.

Changed

• Some targets are available only when the Argumentum project is top-level.

Fixed

• The header-only version can be installed.
• The library can be used from a Git submodule using modern CMake.

• Disable deprecated attribute to fix the build on uwp for vcpkg

Added

• It is now possible to add an instantiated instance of CommandOptions with add_command. This makes it easier to access global options from within command options. See the test shouldAccessParentOptionsFromCommand in command_t.cpp and the new example in the README file.
• The help formatter can be changed in parser configuration. See the test shouldChangeHelpFormatter in parserconfig_t.cpp.

Changed

• The interface for defining program parameters has changed. The parameters are defined through the params() method of the argument_parser class. The old argument_parser methods for defining parameters are deprecated and will be removed.
• Fix: Treat negative numbers as numbers when they can not be mistaken for options.

Most features are implemented. The command interface is not stable, yet.
