[syslog-ng] bugreport for 1.9.5 on solaris [PATCH]

[Roberto Nibali]

Hello,

Two options IMHO:

1. Use the GLib internal parser [Gg]_option*. I don't exactly know if
   this depends on popt, since I have never used it before myself.

2. Use the glibc internally provided command line parser called argp
   which superseeds getopt. More information and documentation can be
   found in the glibc manual:

http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Argp.html#Argp

It's a sexy interface ;), so I'm in favour of option 2. Should be
portable, never tested it though. YMMV.

Cheers,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
