+due to this technique. However, there is a danger that two files will
+define the same flag, and then give an error when they're linked

+library. It's a C++ library, so examples are in C++. However, there
+is a Python port with the same functionality, and this discussion
+translates directly to Python. The gflags library can be downloaded from GitHub.
+You can clone the project using the command: Build and installation instructions are provided in the
+INSTALL file.
+The installation of the gflags package includes configuration files for popular build systems
+such as pkg-config,
+CMake, and Bazel. Using gflags within a project which uses CMake for its build system is easy.
+You can either require an external installation of the gflags package and find it using CMake's find_package
+command, or include the gflags project as subtree or submodule within your project's source tree and add the directory
+using CMake's add_subdirectory command.
+
+ To use an external gflags installation, add the following CMake code to your Find gflags installation. The To request a particular imported gflags library target to link against, use the Note that this will raise a fatal error when the installed gflags package does not contain the requested library.
+It is therefore recommended to only specify the particular component to look for if a specific library must be used.
+Otherwise, the gflags-config.cmake module will choose a suitable and available library for you. By default, the
+multi-threaded gflags library with shared linkage is chosen if available. When the source tree of the gflags project is included as subtree or submodule in the "gflags" directory of your project,
+replace the above find_package command by Finally, add your executable build target which uses gflags to parse the command arguments with dependency on the

+in your list -- you can specify As in getopt(), If a flag is specified more than once, only the last specification
+is used; the others are ignored. Note that flags do not have single-letter synonyms, like they do in
+the getopt library, nor do we allow "combining" flags behind a

+its default value in one application but not others. It's simple to
+do this: just assign a new value to the flag in For this application, users can still set the flag value on the
+commandline, but if they do not, the flag's value will default to
+true. There are a few flags defined by the commandlineflags module
+itself, and are available to all applications that use
+commandlineflags. These fall into
+three categories. First are the 'reporting' flags that, when found, cause

+
+-l and -f /var/tmp/foo are the two
+commandline flags. (johannes and brahms,
+which don't start with a dash, are commandline arguments.)-l takes no argument, and -f takes a
+string (in particular, a filename) as an argument. Users can use a
+library to help parse the commandline and store the flags in some data
+structure.getopt(), in that flag definitions can be
+scattered around the source code, and not just listed in one place
+such as main(). In practice, this means that a single
+source-code file will define and use flags that are meaningful to that
+file. Any application that links in that file will get the flags, and
+the gflags library will automatically handle that
+flag appropriately. Download and Installation

+
+ DEFINE_bool(big_menu, true, "Include 'advanced' options in the menu listing");
+ DEFINE_string(languages, "english,french,german",

+
+
+DEFINE_bool defines a boolean flag. Here are the
+types supported:
+
+
+DEFINE_bool: boolean
+ DEFINE_int32: 32-bit integer

+
+DEFINE-ed at the top of the file. If it
+wasn't, you'll get an 'unknown variable' error.DECLARE_type macro is available when you want to
+use a flag that's defined in another file. For instance, if I were
+writing bar.cc but wanted to access the big_menu, flag, I
+would put this near the top of bar.cc:
+ DECLARE_bool(big_menu);
+
+
+extern
+FLAGS_big_menu.big_menu
+flag: foo.cc, in this case. Such implicit dependencies
+can be difficult to manage in large projects. For that reason we
+recommend the following guideline:
+If you DEFINE a flag in
+
+foo.cc, either don't DECLARE it
+at all, only DECLARE it in tightly related tests, or only DECLARE
+it in foo.h.

+
+.h file, and make others #include that
+.h file if they want to access the flag. The
+#include will make explicit the dependency between the
+two files. This causes the flag to be a global variable. RegisterFlagValidator: Sanity-checking Flag Values
+
+SetCommandLineOption(), the validator function is called
+with the new value as an argument. The validator function should
+return 'true' if the flag value is valid, and false otherwise.
+If the function returns false for the new setting of the
+flag, the flag will retain its current value. If it returns false for the
+default value, ParseCommandLineFlags will die.
+
+
+static bool ValidatePort(const char* flagname, int32 value) {
+ if (value > 0 && value < 32768) // value is ok
+ return true;
+ printf("Invalid value for --%s: %d\n", flagname, (int)value);
+ return false;
+}

+DEFINE_validator(port, &ValidatePort);
+
+
+main().DEFINE_validator macro calls the
+RegisterFlagValidator() function which returns true if the
+registration is successful. It returns false if the registration fails
+because a) the first argument does not refer to a commandline flag, or
+b) a different validator has already been registered for this flag.
+The return value is available as global static boolean variable named
+<flag>_validator_registered. Putting It Together: How to Set Up Flags
+
+FLAGS_* variables to the
+appropriate, non-default value based on what is seen on the
+commandline. This is equivalent to the getopt() call in
+the getopt library, but has much less overhead to use. In fact, it's
+just a single function call:
+ gflags::ParseCommandLineFlags(&argc, &argv, true);
+
+
+main().
+argc and argv are exactly as passed in to
+main(). This routine might modify them, which is why
+pointers to them are passed in.ParseCommandLineFlags removes the flags and their
+arguments from argv, and modifies argc
+appropriately. In this case, after the function call,
+argv will hold only commandline arguments, and not
+commandline flags.remove_flags is false, then
+ParseCommandLineFlags will leave argc unchanged, but will
+rearrange the arguments in argv so that the flags are all at the
+beginning. For example, if the input is "/bin/foo" "arg1" "-q"
+"arg2" (which is legal but weird), the function will rearrange
+argv so it reads "/bin/foo", "-q", "arg1",
+"arg2". In this case, ParseCommandLineFlags
+returns the index into argv that holds the first commandline argument:
+that is, the index past the last flag. (In this example, it would
+return 2, since argv[2] points to arg1.)FLAGS_* variables are modified
+based on what was passed in on the
+commandline. Setting Flags on the Command Line
+
+foo.cc:
+ app_containing_foo --nobig_menu -languages="chinese,japanese,korean" ...
+
+
+FLAGS_big_menu = false; and
+FLAGS_languages = "chinese,japanese,korean", when
+ParseCommandLineFlags is run.
+
+
+app_containing_foo --languages="chinese,japanese,korean"
+ app_containing_foo -languages="chinese,japanese,korean"
+ app_containing_foo --languages "chinese,japanese,korean"
+ app_containing_foo -languages "chinese,japanese,korean"
+
+
+app_containing_foo --big_menu
+ app_containing_foo --nobig_menu
+ app_containing_foo --big_menu=true
+ app_containing_foo --big_menu=false
+--variable=value for non-boolean flags, and
+--variable/--novariable for boolean flags. This
+consistency will make your code more readable, and is also the format
+required for certain special-use cases like flagfiles.--undefok to suppress the error.-- by itself will terminate flags
+processing. So in foo -f1 1 -- -f2 2, f1 is
+considered a flag, but -f2 is not.ls -la. Changing the Default Flag Value
+
+main(),
+before calling ParseCommandLineFlags():
+ DECLARE_bool(lib_verbose); // mylib has a lib_verbose flag, default is false
+ int main(int argc, char** argv) {
+ FLAGS_lib_verbose = true; // in my app, I want a verbose lib by default
+ ParseCommandLineFlags(...);
+ }

+ Special Flags
+
+
+
+
+
+ --helpshows all flags from all files, sorted by file and then by name;
+ shows the flagname, its default value, and its help string
+
+
+ --helpfullsame as -help, but unambiguously asks for all flags
+ (in case -help changes in the future)
+
+
+ --helpshortshows only flags for the file with the same name as the executable
+ (usually the one containing
+main())
+
+ --helpxmllike --help, but output is in xml for easier parsing
+
+
+ --helpon=FILE shows only flags defined in FILE.*
+
+
+ --helpmatch=Sshows only flags defined in *S*.*
+
+
+ --helppackageshows flags defined in files in same directory as
+main()
+
+ --versionprints version info for the executable
+
+
+
+
+ --undefok=flagname,flagname,...for those names listed as the argument to --undefok,
+ suppress the normal error-exit that occurs when
+ --name is seen on the commandline, but
+ name has not been DEFINED anywhere in the
+ application
+--fromenv, --tryfromenv,
+--flagfile. These are described below in more
+detail.
+
+--fromenv --fromenv=foo,bar says to read the values for the
+foo and bar flags from the environment.
+In concert with this flag, you must actually set the values in the
+environment, via a line like one of the two below:
+ export FLAGS_foo=xxx; export FLAGS_bar=yyy # sh
+ setenv FLAGS_foo xxx; setenv FLAGS_bar yyy # tcsh
+
+--foo=xxx,
+--bar=yyy on the commandline.--fromenv=foo if
+foo is not DEFINED somewhere in the application. (Though
+you can suppress this error via --undefok=foo, just like
+for any other flag.)--fromenv=foo if
+FLAGS_foo is not actually defined in the environment.
+
+--tryfromenv --tryfromenv is exactly like --fromenv,
+except it is not a fatal error to say
+--tryfromenv=foo if FLAGS_foo is not
+actually defined in the environment. Instead, in such cases,
+FLAGS_foo just keeps its default value as specified in
+the application.--tryfromenv=foo if
+foo is not DEFINED somewhere in the application.
+
+--flagfile --flagfile=f tells the commandlineflags module to read
+the file f, and to run all the flag-assignments found in
+that file as if these flags had been specified on the commandline.f should just be a list of flag
+assignments, one per line. Unlike on the commandline, the equals sign
+separating a flagname from its argument is required for
+flagfiles. An example flagfile, /tmp/myflags:
+--nobig_menus
+--languages=english,french
+
+
+
+ ./myapp --foo --nobig_menus --languages=english,french --bar
+ ./myapp --foo --flagfile=/tmp/myflags --bar
+
+
+--languages).* and ?), and the sequence of flags located
+after a sequence of filenames is processed only if the current
+executable's name matches one of the filenames. It is possible to
+start the flagfile with a sequence of flags instead of a sequence of
+filenames; if such a sequence of flags is present, these flags are
+applied to the current executable no matter what it is.# are ignored as comments.
+Leading whitespace is also ignored in flagfiles, as are blank
+lines.--flagfile
+flag to include another flagfile. The API
+
+FLAGS_foo directly, it is
+possible to access the flags programmatically, through an API. It is
+also possible to access information about a flag, such as its default
+value and help-string. A FlagSaver makes it easy to
+modify flags and then automatically undo the modifications later.
+Finally, there are somewhat unrelated, but useful, routines to easily
+access parts of argv outside main, including the program
+name (argv[0]).gflags::SetUsageMessage() and
+gflags::SetVersionString, see gflags.h. Miscellaneous Notes
If your application has code like this:
++ #define STRIP_FLAG_HELP 1 // this must go before the #include! + #include <gflags/gflags.h> ++
we will remove the help messages from the compiled source. This can +reduce the size of the resulting binary somewhat, and may also be +useful for security reasons.
+ +Please report any issues or ideas for additional features on GitHub. +We would also like to encourage pull requests for bug fixes and implementations of new features.
