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