Instead of a `FlagSubCommand` struct the addition of two simple methods
to `App`. `App::long_flag` and `App::short_flag` that cover all the
bases of the many methods that were provided in `FlagSubCommand`. This
API is far simpler to use and more akin to the present `Arg::long` and `Arg::short`.
this implements Arg::short_alias, Arg::short_aliases,
Arg::short_visible_alias, and Arg::short_visible_aliases in addition to
adding their associated tests
These are similar to the tests backported to the 2.x branch in
https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/pull/1907. These are more comprehensive,
because the OsStr splitting methods are more robust now.
In particular, fix macros that take an enum of one of the the following forms:
- `#[...] enum { ... , }`
- `pub enum { ... , }`
- `enum { ... , }`
Previously, these expansions would result in an error message like "error: no
rules expected the token `:`".
Add extensive tests for each pattern. Only two of the patterns had tests
before, so these errors did not surface automatically.
1612: Use about() with help() and long_about() with long_help() r=pksunkara a=TheLostLambda
I was going through the clap documentation and was under the impression that calling `help()` would call `about()` and `long_help()` would call `long_about()`, but I've actually discovered this not to be the case. Instead, the `long_about()` was always shown when it existed, rendering the output (in the about section) of programs called with `-h` and `--help` identical. Issue #1472 shows this and that is fixed here.
Note this doesn't remove the ability to use the same about in both cases: if `long_about()` is unset, then `about()` is used in both cases.
I've changed the implementation here to use `is_some()` and `unwrap()` as opposed to `if let` because it ultimately allows for less repetitive code. Ideally, I'd be able to pair `if let` with a secondary condition (namely `self.use_long`), but to my dismay, let-chains are not stabilized yet.
For a second opinion, here is the code a settled on:
```
if self.use_long && parser.meta.long_about.is_some() {
debugln!("Help::write_default_help: writing long about");
write_thing!(parser.meta.long_about.unwrap())
} else if parser.meta.about.is_some() {
debugln!("Help::write_default_help: writing about");
write_thing!(parser.meta.about.unwrap())
}
```
Here is the alternative:
```
if self.use_long {
if let Some(about) = parser.meta.long_about {
debugln!("Help::write_default_help: writing long about");
write_thing!(about)
} else if let Some(about) = parser.meta.about {
debugln!("Help::write_default_help: writing about");
write_thing!(about)
}
} else {
if let Some(about) = parser.meta.about {
debugln!("Help::write_default_help: writing about");
write_thing!(about)
}
}
```

> incidentally, how do we feel about adding a rustfmt check to the CI(s)?
yes we should be doing that. you can send another pr that adds the check to the Ci
The example code.
~~~rust
use clap::{App, Arg};
fn main() {
let matches = App::new("My Super Program")
.arg(
Arg::with_name("verbose")
.help("Sets the level of verbosity")
.short('v')
.long("verbose")
.takes_value(false)
.multiple_occurrences(true)
.env("VERBOSE"),
)
.get_matches();
match matches.occurrences_of("verbose") {
0 => println!("0 No verbose info"),
1 => println!("1 Some verbose info"),
2 => println!("2 Tons of verbose info"),
3 | _ => println!("3 >= Don't be crazy"),
}
}
~~~
It code use multiple_occurrences with env.
But it do not work.
`env` method set require take value.
It result see under.
~~~console
% cargo run -- -v
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.01s
Running `target/debug/foo -v`
error: The argument '--verbose <verbose>...' requires a value but none was supplied
USAGE:
foo [OPTIONS]
For more information try --help
~~~
And, structopt or clap_derive may be create similar code.
So I am confused by structopt.
This to fix code small.

This patch:
* Removes the `ArgSettings::Global` variant, and replaces all
users of it to `Arg::global(...)`. The variant itself is lifted up
into a field on Arg. This was deprecated in clap 2.32.0.
* Removes AppFlags::PropagateGlobalValuesDown. This was deprecated in
clap 2.27.0.
* Removes `Arg::empty_values`. This was deprecated in clap 2.30.0.
* Removes `ArgMatches::usage`. This was deprecated in clap 2.32.0.

This commit changes the internal ID to a u64 which will allow for
greater optimizations down the road. In addition, it lays the ground
work for allowing users to use things like enum variants as argument
keys instead of strings.
The only downside is each key needs to be hashed (the implementation
used is an FNV hasher for performance). However, the performance gains
in faster iteration, comparison, etc. should easily outweigh the single
hash of each argument.
Another benefit of if this commit is the removal of several lifetime
parameters, as it stands Arg and App now only have a single lifetime
parameter, and ArgMatches and ArgGroup have no lifetime parameter.
