This mostly exist for
- Knowing of the value came from the command-line but we now have
`ArgMatches::source`
- Counting the number of flags but we now have `ArgAction::Count`
This shouldn't be needed anymore now that this is effectively the new
behavior for the non-deprecated actions.
This was briefly talked about in
https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/discussions/2627 but I wasn't familiar
enough with the implementation to know how safe it is. Now, maintainrs
and users can be more confident because they are explicitly opting into
it.
See also #3795
Dropping these will help simplify a lot, including removing of
occurrences.
These come at the cost of the derive not yet supporting types that impl
`From`.
This is the derive support for #3774 (see also #3775, #3777)
This combined with `value_parser` replaces `parser`. The main
frustration with this is that `ArgAction::Count` (the replacement for
`parse(from_occurrences)` must be a `u64`. We could come up with a
magic attribute that is meant to be the value parser's parsed type. We
could then use `TryFrom` to convert the parsed type to the user's type
to allow more. That is an exercise for the future. Alternatively, we
have #3792.
Prep for this included
- #3782
- #3783
- #3786
- #3789

This is a follow up to #3420. Its easy to overlook this because it is only
useful for the conditionals (we actually prevent applying unconditional
defaults to unconditional requireds). This became apparent with the
increased use of defaults with `SetTrue`.
As always, there is the question of when is a bug fix a breaking change.
I'm going to consider this safe since we prevent some instances of this
from even happening and we already did #3420 and this is in line with
those.
This is mostly about avoiding criterion's build times when just
developing clap itself.
I'm assuming the derive test changed because criterion's clap v2 isn't
in the dependency tree anymore.
Actions were inspired by Python and Python does not implicitly default
any field when an action is given. From a Builder API perspective, this
seemed fine because we tend to focus the Builder API on giving the user
all information so they can make their own decisions. When working on
the Derive API, this became a problem because users were going to have
to migrate from an implied default to an explicit default when a common
default is good enough most of the time. This shouldn't interfere with
Builder users getting more details when needed.
This also highlighted two problems
- We set the index for defaults
- We don't debug_assert when applying conditional requirements with a
default present
This will make it easier to divide off parser logic for adding in
actions.
This does mean we can't provide error reporting on bad values with
`bool` but
- We should have also been doing that for `from_flag`
- We'll be dropping this soon in clap4 anyways
This round out the new style actions and allow us to start deprecating
occurrences.
As part of an effort to unify code paths, this does change flag parsing
to do splits. This will only be a problem if the user enables splits
but we'll at least not crash. Once we also address #3776, we'll be able
to have envs all work the same.
If we felt this was important long-term, we should fix this outside of
the Action. Since we might be changing up occurrences (#3772), we can
probably get away with a hack.
This changes how occurrences and values are grouped for multiple values.
Today, it appears as a bug. If we move forward with #3772, then this
can make sense.
I wrote these tests expecting to highlight a bug but it turns out things
were structured just right to not exhibit it. The fact that the code
looks like its broken is a problem, so I restructured it (put it first,
changed the source) so it doesn't look suspicious anymore.
We were independently starting occurrences and starting value groups.
Now we do them at the same time.
COMPATIBILITY: This changes us from counting occurrences per positional
when using `multiple_values` to one occurrence. This is user visible
and tests were written against it but it goes against the documentation
and doesn't quite make sense.
When to show usage? We are currently mixed about it. For `validator`,
we didn't show it at all. Sometimes we show the used arguments and
sometimes we don't.
With `ValueParser`, I ran into the problem that we weren't showing the
used arguments like we had previously in some cases. In deciding how to
solve this, I went with the simplest route for now and removed it as the
usage likely doesn't add much context to help people solve their
problem, more so the recommendation for help. We'll see how the
feedback is on this and adjust.
For clap 3, its opt-in as a precaution against breaking
compatibility in some weird cases.
This does require the types to implement `Clone`.
Fixes#3734Fixes#3496Fixes#3589
`multicall` allows you to have one binary expose itself as multiple
programs, like busybox does. This also works well for user clap for
parsing REPLs.
Fixes#2861
Unfortunately, we can't track using a `ValueParser` inside of `Command`
because its `PartialEq`. We'll have to wait until a breaking change to
relax that.
Compatibility:
- We now assert on using the wrong method to look up defaults. This
shouldn't be a breaking change as it'll assert when getting a real
value.
- `values_of`, et al delay panicing on the wrong lookup until the
iterator is being processed.
With us moving the required de-duplication up a level, it made this
check redundant. By removing this check, we're more likely to have an
item in the `incls` which forces a smart usage and reduces the chance of
an `[ARGS]` or `[OPTIONS]`, so a couple of tests changed.
Gave up trying to decipher the existing logic for safe ways to
de-duplicate manually and switched to an `IndexSet` to enforce only one
of each argument exists.
Fixes#3556
This is a step towards #3309. We want to make longs and long aliases
more consistent in how they handle leading dashes. There is more
flexibility offered in not stripping and it matches the v3 short
behavior of only taking the non-dash form. This starts the process by
disallowing it completely so people will catch problems with it and
remove their existing leading dashes. In a subsequent breaking release
we can remove the debug assert and allow triple-leading dashes.
`Arg::exclusive` is just another way of defining conflicts, so a
present-exclusive arg should override required like other conflicts.
Instead of going through the message of enumerating all other arguments
as exclusive, I shortcutted it and special case exclusive in the
required check like we do with conflicts. The big downside is the
implicit coupling between the code paths rather than having a consistent
abstraction for covering conflicts.
This isn't a breaking change because if someone defined an exclusive arg
as a sibling to a required arg, the exclusive arg could never be used,
it always errored, and so no valid application can be written with it.
Fixes#3595
This is a step towards #992. When help renders the application name, it
uses the `bin` template variable which is just the `bin` name with
spaces converted to ` `. While having `app.exe sub` makes sense,
`app.exe-sub` does not.
To get around needing this for usage, we've created a `display_name`
field that is fairly similar but
- The root name is the `name` and not `bin_name`
- We always join with `-`
This means that the derived `bin_name` will only show up in usage.
For now, the default template has not been updated as that is a minor
compatibility change and should be in a minor release, at least. I was
worried this would be a full breaking change. The main case I was
worried about was cargo subcommands but our tests show they should just
work.
By removing all arguments, we've switched from an "unrecognized
argument" error to a "unrecognized subcommand" error. While the wording
has room for improvement, its at least progress on #2862.
Before, if two arguments were required *and* overrode each other, then
`cmd --opt=1 --other=2` succeded but `cmd --other=2` failed despite
ignoring `--opt=1`. Requiring `--opt=1` to be present but unavailable
doesn't help anyone and makes the behavior less predictable.
Now both commands will have the same behavior.
`Command::_build_all` started as an internal function for
`clap_complete` as a stopgap until #2911. Overtime, we've been finding
more cases where this function needs to be called, so now we're going to
fully embrace it until #2911 so people aren't scrared off by the hidden
implementation from using it.
This was inspired by #3602
Comptibility: Though this adds a deprecation which we general reserve
for minor or major versions, this is enough of a corner case that I'm
fine doing this in a patch release.
`-h` (short help) still shows the same.
This gates it behind an `unstable-v4` feature flag to avoid disrupting users who set the help without knowing where all it shows up (particularly derive users where `ArgEnum` is automatically extracting the help).
Fixes#3312
Instead of just renaming it, I reconsidered what the API should look
like. A custom separator for author does not make sense positionally
but accepting a name, and defaulting it, does fit with what someone
would expect.
I removed the `_from_crate` suffix because it doesn't seem necessary.
We don't have this kind of naming for the derive. I feel it cleans
things up this way.
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.
Now that we can use `SubcommandRequired |
ArgRequiredElseHelp`, this setting offers little value but requires we
track required subcommands with two different settings. Deprecating as
the cost is not worth the benefit anymore.
Issue #3280 will see the derive updated
Like was said in #2435, this is what people would expect.
While we should note this in a compatibility section in the changelog, I
do not consider this a breaking change since we should be free to adjust
the help output as needed. We are cautious when people might build up
their own content around it (like #3312) but apps should already handle
this with `--help` so this shouldn't be a major change.
We aren't offering a way for people to disable this, assuming people
won't need to. Longer term, we are looking at support "Actions" (#3405)
and expect those to help customize the flags. We'll need something
similar for the `help` subcommand.
Fixes#3440
This is a part of #2717
Some settings didn't get getters because
- They are transient parse settings (e.g. ignore errors)
- They get propagated to args and should be checked there
`is_allow_hyphen_values_set` is a curious case. In some cases, we only
check the app and not an arg. This seems suspicious.
For the derive API, you can only call `next_display_order` when dealing
with a flatten. Until we offer app attributes on arguments, the user can workaround with
this no-op flattens.
This is a part of #1807
This clarifies the intent and prepares for other functions doing the
same, like `next_display_order`. This will then open us to name
`subcommand_help_heading` and `display_order` similar.
The deprecation is waiting on 3.1.
This is part of #1807 and #1553.
This is inspired by cargo which allows you to run `cargo test --test`
and it will list the possible tests (obviously we can't support that atm
because that requires a lot of runtime processing). When we do have a
static list of possible values, we can at least show those.
Fixes#3320
For some errors, we use the unroll logic to get the list of required
arguments. The usage then does the same, but without a matcher. This
was causing the lists to not match.
As a side effect, this fixed an ordering issue where we were putting the
present arg after the not-present arg. I assume its because we ended up
reporting the items twice but the first time is correctly ordered and
gets precedence.
This was split out of #3020
When an Arg uses .min_values(0), that arg's value(s) are effectively
optional. This is conventionaly denoted in help messages by wrapping the
arg's values in square brackets. For example:
--foo[=value]
--bar [value]
This kind of argument can be seen in the wild in many git commands; e.g.
git-status(1).

We were only tracking the last value source (default, env, cli, etc).
This works for args because they only come from one source. Groups
however can come from multiple sources and this was making us treat a
group with a default value as being completely from defaults despite
some values maybe being from the commandline.
We now track the highest precedence value for a group.
Fixes#3330
I thought I was adding a test in #3305. Maybe I considered the
clap_complete changes sufficient for this. Doing more `debug_assert`s
would be good also.
Unsetting `PropagateVersion` helps in some cases but we need to unset it
globally to override the global propagation.
Fixes#3310
The error was when doing `#[clap(arg_enum, default_value_t = ...)]`.
Good example of why we should minimize `use`, at least in tests
(besides reducing merge conflicts, code churn, etc).
This reverts commit 333b993481.
PR #1810's motivation was effectively "this is redundant with `\n`".
That is a fine motivation. Unfortunately, we don't have a way to force
a hard break in `clap_derive`. #2389 should help with this eventually
but we shouldn't hold up 3.0 to get that ready. So in the mean time, we
are restoring `{n}`.
We have #3230 for tracking the re-removal of it.
This allows two overriding args to interact with each other mid-line.
This was broken in 7673dfc / #1154. Before that, we duplicated the override
logic in several places.
Now we plug into the start of a new arg which allows us to do this
incrementally without making the logic complex or inefficient, thanks to
prior refactors.
Fixes#3217
While I'm unsure how much type specialization we should do, we
intentionally have the `arg_enum` attribute for doing special behavior
based on it, so let's take advantage of it.
Fixes#3185
The extra whitespace was targeted at machine processing for a subset of
users for a subset of runs of CLIs. On the other hand, there is a lot
of concern over the extra verbose output.
A user can set the help template for man, if desired. They can even do
something (env? feature flag?) to make it only run when doing man
generation. We also have #3174 in the works.
So let's focus on the end-user reading `--help`. People wanting to use
`help2man` have workarounds to do what they need.
Fixes#3096
The main care about is that when we override a `flatten` / `subcommand`
doc comment in a parent container, that we make sure we take nothing
from the child container, rather than implicitly taking one `about` ut
not `long_about`.
To do this, and to play the most safe with long help detection, we reset
`long_about` to default when there is no doc comment body to use for
`long_about`.
Fixes#2983
We have two ways of fixing this
- Making `--help` work
- Don't put `--help` in the help output
For now, I went with the latter. I tried to make it clear what the
actual requirement is so we can pivot if needed.
Fixes#2892
This happens to also fix the interaction of `DisableHelpFlag` with the
help subcommand and complcations. I've added a test to help catch if we
break this by changing how we fixed the original issue.
Fixes#2724
These issues were reported against clap3. I've not tried to reproduce
these in clap2 to see if they should show up in the release notes.
I'm assuming we won't have a negative performance impact by removing
`impl Copy for Id` because the compiler would inline the `clone()`s and
turn them into copies.
Addresses problems from #3164
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 creates distinct tutorial examples from complex feature examples
(more how-tos). Both sets are getting builder / derive versions (at
least the critical ones).
This is prep for moving the derive tests. Besides organizing the test
folder for each API, this should reduce link time at the cost of
re-compiling more when a test changes.
This both distances itself from our 'require' terminology and aligns
itself with `Option::expect`, making it more likely for people to guess
the intended behavior.
This ports our example testing over to [trycmd](https://docs.rs/) so
we can:
- More thoroughly test our examples
- Provide always-up-to-date example usage
The old way of testing automatically picked up examples. This new way
requires we have a `.md` file that uses the example in some way.
Notes:
- Moved overall example description to the `.md` file
- I added cross-linking between related examples
- `14_groups` had a redundant paragraph (twice talked about "one and
only one"
This is intended to replace the runtime usage parser and is not meant to
be a complete API in of itself, like `clap_app!`. What is in scope is
everything that visually makes sense as in a usage string (see
[docopt](http://docopt.org/) for inspiration). General setting of
attributes is out of scope.
This deviates from both `clap_app` and the runtime usage parser
- `clap_app` supported multiple values but has a bug because we made
`Arg::value_name` non-appending, so we aren't supporting this yet
- We do not yet support optional flags that take a value
- In both, `...` is multiple occurrences and values while its only
multiple occurrences for us
- We explicitly support optional values for flags
- Unlike `clap_app`, our name is optional
- Unlike runtime usage parser, our name syntax is simpler
- Unlike runtime usage parser, our name syntax does not allow modifiers
Its more limited than I would like. Hopefully some people better with
macros can expand the feature set and turn more runtime errors into
compile-time errors.
This is to prepare for deprecating the runtime usage parser (#8).
Since usage parser and yaml are on the way to being deprecated (#8, #9),
doing a rename also seems excessive, so rolling it back.

In #2851, we moved color from an AppSetting to function (with some
tweaks in #2907). When doing this, we documented `App::color` to be
equivalent of `App::global_settings(Color...)` but never actually
propagated it.
We are now propagating it. A test is added to ensure that no matter
how we store the color choice, we continue to propagate it. This
required exposing `App::get_color`.
The tests are using `to_string` which maps to `Display::fmt` and the
`Colorizer` version is colorless. To get color, it is only supported
with `print()` which has to go to stdout / stderr and can't be directed
to an arbitrary stream.
Though we store a lot of values as `&'help str`, we return them as
`&'self str`, making it so they can not be used programmatically as part
of a `App::mut_arg` call.
This loosens the lifetimes so they can be used with `App::mut_arg`.
This also includes a test simulating the desired workflow described in #2966
I skipped `get_all_aliases`. I ran into problems with lifetimes with
`all_subcommand_names` and didn't quickly resolve it. Rather than hold
this up, I punted on it for now.
We'll have to tighten these back up with #1041 but that will also enable
turning them into owned strings, so this will still be possible after
that issue is resolved, just the calls will be slightly different.
When supporting multiple occurrences for positional arguments in #2804,
I added some tests to cover this but apparently simpler cases fail
despite those more complicated cases being tested.
This adds more multiple-occurrences tests for positional arguments,
fixes them, and in general equates multiple values with occurrences for
positional arguments as part of #2692. There are a couple more points
for consideration for #2692 for us to decide on once this unblocks them
(usage special case in #2977 and how subcommand help should be handled).
I fully admit I have not fully quantified the impact of all of these
changes and am heavily relying on the quality of our tests to carry this
forward.
In looking at multiple occurrences and values for issues like #2692, I
noticed that `...` can mean both multiple values and multiple
occurrences, like before we split them.
Pros
- No syntax change with clap3
Cons
- All the reasons we split `multiple` into two
Uncertain
- I originally started this as part of another branch but I lost track
if something depended on this. I'll have to do more digging
BREAKING CHANGE: If `--opt [val]...` was meant for
- only multiple occurrences, see `[opt]... --opt [val]`
- both multiple occurrences and values, see `[opt]... --opt [val]...`
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.
This gives users the basic error template for quick and dirty messages.
In addition to the lack of customization, they are not given anything to help
them with coloring or for programmayic use (info, source).
This is something I've wanted many times for one-off validation that
can't be expressed with clap's validation or it just wasn't worth
the hoops. The more pressing need is for #2255, I need `clap_derive`
to be able to create error messages and `Error::with_description` seemed
too disjoint from the rest of the clap experience that it seemed like
users would immediately create issues about it showing up.
With this available, I've gone ahead and deprecated
`Error::with_description` (added in 58512f2fc), assuming this will be
sufficient for users needs (or they can use IO Errors as a back door).
I did so according to the pattern in #2718 despite us not being fully
resolved on that approach yet.
2817: Add support for Multicall executables as subcommands with a Multicall setting r=pksunkara a=fishface60
Co-authored-by: Richard Maw <richard.maw@gmail.com>
Who knew people need to ask `help` for how to use `help`?
While auditing `MultpleValues`, I saw commented out code. Looks
its commit (f230cfedc) was part of a large refactor and updating that
part fell through the cracks. Just simply updating it didn't quite get
it to work. The advantage of this approach is it gets us closer to how
clap works on its own.
In clap 2.33.3, `cmd help help` looks like
```
myapp-help
Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
USAGE:
test-clap help [subcommand]...
ARGS:
<subcommand>... The subcommand whose help message to display
```
But clap3 master looks like:
```
myapp
USAGE:
myapp [SUBCOMMAND]
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Print custom help about text
SUBCOMMANDS:
help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
subcmd
```
This change improves it to:
```
myapp-help
Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
USAGE:
myapp help [SUBCOMMAND]...
ARGS:
<SUBCOMMAND>... The subcommand whose help message to display
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Print custom help about text
```
We still have global arguments showing up (like `-h`) that will error but its
an improvement! In general, I'd like to find a way to leverage clap's stanard
behavior for implementing this so we don't have to worry about any of these
corner cases in the future.
Note: compared to clap2, I changed `<subcommand>` to `<SUBCOMMAND>` because I
believe the standard convention is for value names to be all caps (e.g.
`clap_derive` has been updated to default to that).
This is inline with all of our other help-related functions that return
strings.
This is a part of #2164
BREAKING CHANEG: `App::generate_usage` (added in v3) ->
`App::render_usage`.
PR #1211 originally added `help_heading` with the current priority
(`App::help_heading` wins).
In #1958, the author had proposed to change this
> Note that I made the existing arg's heading a priority over the one in App::help_heading
This was reverted on reviewer request because
> Thanks for the priority explanation. Yes, please make the app's help
> heading a priority. I can see how it would be useful when people might
> want to reuse args.
Re-using args is an important use case but this makes life difficult
for anyone using `help_heading` with `clap_derive` because the user
can only call `App::help_heading` once per struct. Derive users can't get
per-field granularity with `App::help_heading` like the builder API.
As a bonus, I think this will be the least surpising to users. Users
generally expect the more generic specification (App) to be overridden by the
more specific specification (Arg). Honestly, I had thought this PR is
how `help_heading` worked until I dug into the code with #2872.
In the argument re-use cases, a workaround is for the reusable arguments
to **not** set their help_heading and require the caller to set it as
needed.

In part, this is just fixing a papercut where someone will try to use
the API in the same way between the two but it fails and they'll have to
consult the docs / rust-analyzer.
The bigger reason is that this is more derive-friendly for dealing with #2803
since we will be able to just ask for the current help heading
before running the app and then restore it back, rather than having to
conditionalize the revert logic.
For those that want the original behavior, you can usxe
`arg.help_heading(Some("FLAGS"))` on your flags. Limitations:
- This will not give you a special sort order
- This will not get a `[FLAGS]` added to usage
For templates, we removed `{unified}` and `{flags}`. To help people
catch these, a debug_assert was added.
I'm unsure but I think there might be a change in behavior in calcuating
when to show `[OPTION]` in usage. The old code only looked at
`required` while flags looked only at arg groups. We now look at both.
Ideally we'd add these in `_build` and remove special casing for
no-groups except in the sort order of groups. I feel like thats best
left for later.
This also reduced the scope of `App`s public API.
`get_*_with_no_heading` seemed a bit specialized to be in the public
API. #2853 looks at splitting it out into its own PR.
BREAKING CHANGE: Multiple
- `UnifiedHelpMessage` removed
- `{flags}` and `{unified}` are removed and will assert when present.
- `get_*_with_no_heading` removed
Fixes#2807
This partially reverts commit 7f627fc.
This reverts the error code change but not the `ErrorKind` change. I
was mixed on whether we should do that or not. The benefit is it makes
it so people can check the Kind for cases like #2021. On the other
hand, it doesn't seem that hard to re-implement the feature.
Fixes#2767
This was changed in #1989 without an explanation:
- In the help template, there isn't a way to expose with help_headings,
so show all.
- In usage, we don't know whether the user wants to see `[FLAGS]` /
`[OPTIONS]` or not, so let's default to showing them.
* Check for `DisableHelpFlag` along with `NoAutoHelp`
Also applies for `DisableHelpSubcommand` and `DisableVersionFlag` with `NoAutoVersion`
* Add tests for overriding help and version, and disabling version.
These override by disabling the default and adding a new one.
* Don't use `default_missing_value` for `override_version_using_short`
* Check errors by the API.
This changes the `disabled_version_long` and `disabled_version_short` tests.
This is opposed to comparing the stderr output.
* feat(arg_value): ArgValue can be used for possible_values
Through the ArgValue it is possible:
* `hide` possible_values from showing in completion, help and validation
* add `about` to possible_values in completion
* Resolved a few change-requests by epage
* make clippy happy
* add ArgValue::get_visible_value
* remove verbose destructering
* rename ArgValue::get_hidden to ArgValue::is_hidden
* add test for help output of hidden ArgValues
* Documentation for ArgValue
There is an issue that required to implement From<&ArgValue> for
ArgValue. We should probably find a solution without that.
* fix requested changes by epage
* fix formatting
* add deref in possible_values call to remove From<&&str>
* make clippy happy
* use copied() instad of map(|v|*v)
* Finishing up for merge, hopefully
* changes requested by pksunkara
This addresses a bug that causes duplicate flags reported in user-facing
error messages when two flags require one-another but also are required
under other conditions. The fix involves removing duplicates in unrolled
requirements, which addresses the user-facing aspect of this bug.
* Don't suggest `help` or `--help` when not applicable
* Apply suggestions from code review

Because we gradually build the `ArgGroup` as we parse the YAML, we don't
use `ArgGroup::new`. Clap3 introduced an internal `id` in addition to
the public `name` and it appears that this custom initialization code
was not updated.
This shows the problem with publically exposing `impl Default`.
Choices:
- Remove `impl Default`
- Always valid
- Requires spreading invariants
- Callers can't implement code the same way we do
- Add `ArgGroup::name`
- Can be constructed in an invalid state
- Centralizes invariants
- A caller could implement code like the yaml logic
I decided to go with `ArgGroup::name`.
Fixes#2719
Before, validating UTF-8 was all-or-nothing and would cause a `panic` if
someone used the right API with non-UTF-8 input.
Now, all arguments are validated for UTF-8, unless opted-out. This
ensures a non-panicing path forward at the cost of people using the
builder API that previously did `value_of_os` need to now set this flag.
Fixes#751
