Glib::OptionGroup



NAME

Glib::OptionGroup

HIERARCHY

  Glib::Boxed
  +----Glib::OptionGroup

METHODS

optiongroup = Glib::OptionGroup->new (key => value, ...)

Creates a new option group from the given key-value pairs. The valid keys are name, description, help_description, and entries. The first three specify strings while the last one, entries, specifies an array reference of option entries. Example:

  my $group = Glib::OptionGroup->new (
                name => 'urgs',
                description => 'Urgs Urgs Urgs',
                help_description => 'Help with Urgs',
                entries => \@entries);

An option entry is a hash reference like this:

  { long_name => 'verbose',
    short_name => 'v',
    flags => [qw/reverse hidden in-main/],
    arg_type => 'none',
    arg_value => \$verbose,
    description => 'verbose desc.',
    arg_description => 'verbose arg desc.' }

Of those keys only long_name, arg_type, and arg_value are required. So this is a valid option entry too:

  { long_name => 'package-names',
    arg_type => 'string-array',
    arg_value => \$package_names }

For convenience, option entries can also be specified as array references containing long_name, short_name, arg_type, and arg_value:

  [ 'filenames', 'f', 'filename-array', \$filenames ]

If you don't want an option to have a short name, specify undef for it:

  [ 'filenames', undef, 'filename-array', \$filenames ]

$group->set_translate_func ($func, $data=undef)

$group->set_translation_domain ($domain)
