Currently, getopt() is not usable for command line scripts that have both option and non-option arguments, because it doesn't modify argv, as pointed out already in 2003 in this comment: http://www.php.net/getopt#34163. Stripping away the option arguments from argv when a call to getopt() is made would be a great improvement. User land code can handle the remaining non-option arguments from argv then. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46937&edit=1
