Detailed Description

Parse command-line arguments.

Instances of this class can be used to parse command-line arguments. Programs can register a general usage message with CommandLine::Usage, and arguments with CommandLine::AddValue. Argument variable types with input streamers (operator>>) can be set directly; more complex argument parsing can be accomplished by providing a Callback.

CommandLine also provides handlers for these standard arguments:

--PrintGlobals:              Print the list of globals.
--PrintGroups:               Print the list of groups.
--PrintGroup=[group]:        Print all TypeIds of group.
--PrintTypeIds:              Print all TypeIds.
--PrintAttributes=[typeid]:  Print all attributes of typeid.
--PrintVersion:              Print the ns-3 version.
--PrintHelp:                 Print this help message.

The more common --version is a synonym for --PrintVersion.

The more common --help is a synonym for --PrintHelp; an example is given below.

CommandLine can also handle non-option arguments (often called simply "positional" parameters: arguments which don't begin with "-" or "--"). These can be parsed directly in to variables, by registering arguments with AddNonOption in the order expected. Additional non-option arguments encountered will be captured as strings.

Finally, CommandLine processes Attribute and GlobalValue arguments. Default values for specific attributes can be set using a shorthand argument name.

In use, arguments are given in the form

--arg=value --toggle first-non-option

Most arguments expect a value, as in the first form, --arg=value. Toggles, corresponding to boolean arguments, can be given in any of the forms

--toggle1 --toggle2=1 --toggle3=t --toggle4=true

The first form changes the state of toggle1 from its default; all the rest set the corresponding boolean variable to true. 0, f and false are accepted to set the variable to false. Option arguments can appear in any order on the command line, even intermixed with non-option arguments. The order of non-option arguments is preserved.

Option arguments can be repeated on the command line; the last value given will be the final value used. For example,

--arg=one --toggle=f --arg=another --toggle

The variable set by --arg will end up with the value "another"; the boolean set by --toggle will end up as true.

Because arguments can be repeated it can be hard to decipher what value each variable ended up with, especially when using boolean toggles. Suggested best practice is for scripts to report the values of all items settable through CommandLine, as done by the example below.

CommandLine can set the initial value of every attribute in the system with the --TypeIdName::AttributeName=value syntax, for example

--Application::StartTime=3s

In some cases you may want to highlight the use of a particular attribute for a simulation script. For example, you might want to make it easy to set the Application::StartTime using the argument --start, and have its help string show as part of the help message. This can be done using the AddValue (name, attributePath) method.

CommandLine can also set the value of every GlobalValue in the system with the --GlobalValueName=value syntax, for example

--SchedulerType=HeapScheduler

A simple example of CommandLine is in src/core/example/command-line-example.cc See that file for an example of handling non-option arguments.

The heart of that example is this code:

int         intArg  = 1;
bool        boolArg = false;
std::string strArg  = "strArg default";
 
CommandLine cmd (__FILE__);
cmd.Usage ("CommandLine example program.\n"
           "\n"
           "This little program demonstrates how to use CommandLine.");
cmd.AddValue ("intArg",  "an int argument",       intArg);
cmd.AddValue ("boolArg", "a bool argument",       boolArg);
cmd.AddValue ("strArg",  "a string argument",     strArg);
cmd.AddValue ("anti",    "ns3::RandomVariableStream::Antithetic");
cmd.AddValue ("cbArg",   "a string via callback", MakeCallback (SetCbArg));
cmd.Parse (argc, argv);

after which it prints the values of each variable. (The SetCbArg function is not shown here; see src/core/example/command-line-example.cc)

Here is the output from a few runs of that program:

$ ./waf --run="command-line-example"
intArg:   1
boolArg:  false
strArg:   "strArg default"
cbArg:    "cbArg default"

$ ./waf --run="command-line-example --intArg=2 --boolArg --strArg=Hello --cbArg=World"
intArg:   2
boolArg:  true
strArg:   "Hello"
cbArg:    "World"

$ ./waf --run="command-line-example --help"
ns3-dev-command-line-example-debug [Program Arguments] [General Arguments]

CommandLine example program.

This little program demonstrates how to use CommandLine.

Program Arguments:
    --intArg:   an int argument [1]
    --boolArg:  a bool argument [false]
    --strArg:   a string argument [strArg default]
    --anti:     Set this RNG stream to generate antithetic values (ns3::RandomVariableStream::Antithetic) [false]
    --cbArg:    a string via callback

General Arguments:
    --PrintGlobals:              Print the list of globals.
    --PrintGroups:               Print the list of groups.
    --PrintGroup=[group]:        Print all TypeIds of group.
    --PrintTypeIds:              Print all TypeIds.
    --PrintAttributes=[typeid]:  Print all attributes of typeid.
    --PrintVersion:              Print the ns-3 version.
    --PrintHelp:                 Print this help message.

Having parsed the arguments, some programs will need to perform some additional validation of the received values. A common issue at this point is to discover that the supplied arguments are incomplete or incompatible. Suggested best practice is to supply an error message and the complete usage message. For example,

int value1;
int value2;
 
CommandLine cmd (__FILE__);
cmd.Usage ("...");
cmd.AddValue ("value1", "first value", value1);
cmd.AddValue ("value2", "second value", value1);
 
cmd.Parse (argc, argv);
 
if (value1 * value2 < 0)
  {
    std::cerr << "value1 and value2 must have the same sign!" << std::endl;
    std::cerr << cmd;
    exit (-1);
  }

Finally, note that for examples which will be run by test.py the preferred declaration of a CommandLine instance is

CommandLine cmd (__FILE__);

This will ensure that the program usage and arguments can be added to the Doxygen documentation automatically.
