This is part of the `App` rename.
Previously, I was concerned about not being able to deprecate
For backwards compatibility, we still expose the `IntoApp` name.
No good solution for transitioning the trate name, unfortnately, since
we can't mark `use`s as deprecated (we can, it just does nothing).
I got rid of the `into` prefix because that implies a `self` parameter
that doesn't exist.
We left them in the docs for a period of time to help people find docs
for code that was still in use. Balancing that with the need for clean
docs, it seems like 3.1 is an appropriate time to mark them hidden in
the docs.
And other derive tweaks. I'm mixed on how far to go, including
- Linking to the derive reference
- Showing how to use each trait with both the derive and builder APIs
For now, this is an improvement.
Adding in a `StructOpt` derive with `structopt` attributes, with
deprecation notices. Unofrtunately, not as many deprecation warnings as
I would like. Apparently, you can't do them for a `use` of a derive? I
also wanted to inject code that would trigger a deprecation notice for
attributes but that would require enough of a refactor that I didn't
consider it worth it. We are at least providing a transition window
even if it means we'll have to remvoe it next major release without a
deprecation warning.
This reverts commits 24cb8b1..d0abb37 from clap-rs/clap#1840
This is part of #16. clap-rs/clap#1840 wasn't the right call but we
don't have time to make the decision now, so instead of having one
option and changing it in 4.0, this reverts back to clap2 behavior.
In considering potential work for #2683, I realized we might need a type to carry data for
each of the `multiple_values`. `ArgValue` works both for that and for
possible values, so we need to come up with a better name for one or
both. Changing `ArgValue`s name now would be ideal since its new in
clap3 and by renaming it, we can reduce churn for users.
While thinking about this, I realized I regularly get these mixed
up, so renaming `ArgValue` to `PossibleValue` I think will help clear
things up, regardless of #2683.
Before #2005, `Clap` was a special trait that derived all clap traits it
detected were relevant (including an enum getting both `ArgEnum`,
`Clap`, and `Subcommand`). Now, we have elevated `Clap`, `Args`,
`Subcommand`, and `ArgEnum` to be user facing but the name `Clap` isn't
very descriptive.
This also helps further clarify the relationships so a crate providing
an item to be `#[clap(flatten)]` or `#[clap(subcommand)]` is more likely
to choose the needed trait to derive.
Also, my proposed fix fo #2785 includes making `App` attributes almost
exclusively for `Clap`. Clarifying the names/roles will help
communicate this.
