79// wxCmdLineParser is a class for parsing command line.
80//
81// It has the following features:
82//
83// 1. distinguishes options, switches and parameters; allows option grouping
84// 2. allows both short and long options
85// 3. automatically generates the usage message from the cmd line description
86// 4. does type checks on the options values (number, date, ...)
87//
88// To use it you should:
89//
90// 1. construct it giving it the cmd line to parse and optionally its desc
91// 2. construct the cmd line description using AddXXX() if not done in (1)
92// 3. call Parse()
93// 4. use GetXXX() to retrieve the parsed info
