75// wxCmdLineParser is a class for parsing command line.
76//
77// It has the following features:
78//
79// 1. distinguishes options, switches and parameters; allows option grouping
80// 2. allows both short and long options
81// 3. automatically generates the usage message from the cmd line description
82// 4. does type checks on the options values (number, date, ...)
83//
84// To use it you should:
85//
86// 1. construct it giving it the cmd line to parse and optionally its desc
87// 2. construct the cmd line description using AddXXX() if not done in (1)
88// 3. call Parse()
89// 4. use GetXXX() to retrieve the parsed info
