52 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
53 | The | |
54 | .Fn getsubopt | |
55 | function | |
56 | parses a string containing tokens that are delimited | |
57 | by one or more tab, space, or comma | |
58 | .Pq Ql \&, | |
59 | characters. | |
60 | It is intended for use in parsing groups of option arguments | |
61 | that are provided as part of a utility command line. | |
62 | .Pp | |
63 | The argument | |
64 | .Fa optionp | |
65 | is a pointer to a pointer to the string. | |
66 | The argument | |
67 | .Fa keylistp | |
68 | is a pointer to a | |
69 | .Dv NULL Ns -terminated | |
70 | array of pointers to strings. | |
71 | .Pp | |
72 | The | |
73 | .Fn getsubopt | |
74 | function | |
75 | returns the zero-based offset of the pointer in the | |
76 | .Fa keylistp | |
77 | array, referencing a string which matches the first token in the string | |
78 | or \-1 if the string contains no tokens or | |
79 | .Fa keylistp | |
80 | does not contain a matching string. | |
81 | .Pp | |
82 | If the token is of the form ``name=value'', the location referenced by | |
83 | .Fa valuep | |
84 | will be set to point to the start of the ``value'' portion of the token. | |
85 | .Pp | |
86 | On return from | |
87 | .Fn getsubopt , | |
88 | .Fa optionp | |
89 | will be set to point to the start of the next token in the string, | |
90 | or the null at the end of the string if no more tokens are present. | |
91 | The external variable | |
92 | .Fa suboptarg | |
93 | will be set to point to the start of the current token, or | |
94 | .Dv NULL | |
95 | if no | |
96 | tokens were present. | |
97 | The argument | |
98 | .Fa valuep | |
99 | will be set to point to the ``value'' portion of the token, or | |
100 | .Dv NULL | |
101 | if no ``value'' portion was present. | |
