How to read console commands

How to read console commands

[Heiko Hamann]

Hi!

I would like to read console commands that were included like this:
"program -d=500 e=12"
with a Ada program. How can that be done?

Thank you and bye

Heiko.

You want to use the Ada.Command_Line package to handle command line
options.

Read the Package Command_Line in Annex A of your Ada maual.

Excerp: "The package Command_Line allows a program to obtain the values of
its arguments and to set the exit status code to be returned on normal
termination."

You will find the information you need there.

I wrote a command line parser a few years ago that's designed to be a
framework for processing command line options and arguments.  It's at:
