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.
