98// wxCmdLineParser is a class for parsing command line.
99//
100// It has the following features:
101//
102// 1. distinguishes options, switches and parameters; allows option grouping
103// 2. allows both short and long options
104// 3. automatically generates the usage message from the cmd line description
105// 4. does type checks on the options values (number, date, ...)
106//
107// To use it you should:
108//
109// 1. construct it giving it the cmd line to parse and optionally its desc
110// 2. construct the cmd line description using AddXXX() if not done in (1)
111// 3. call Parse()
112// 4. use GetXXX() to retrieve the parsed info
