note 71680 added to function.array-search

I had a syntax error in the previous post, please delete it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- You can use array_search to simply parse a CLI program's input parameters such as: [user@server ~]$ ./someCLIprog.php --username user1 --password 123password --option1 whatever You can easily parse this information using the following code snippets: <?php // Get the username $userkey = array_search("--username", $argv); // Make sure both that the token was found and followed by another valid token, AKA not one that begins with a - if ($userkey && !empty($argv[$userkey+1]) && strcmp($argv[$userkey+1]{0}, '-')) { $username = $argv[$userkey+1]; } // If you want the token to be required add the following else statement else { exit("No username provided\n"); } // repeat for each optional parameter, ?> ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 205.158.200.226 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-search.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71680 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71680 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71680 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
