If this +// flag is empty, nothing happens here. If it contains a string, +// however, then HandleCommandLineCompletions() will hijack the +// process, attempting to identify the intention behind this +// completion. Regardless of the outcome of this deduction, the +// process will be terminated, similar to --helpshort flag +// handling. +// +// ** Overview of Bash completions: +// Bash can be told to programatically determine completions for the +// current 'cursor word'. It does this by (in this case) invoking a +// command with some additional arguments identifying the command +// being executed, the word being completed, and the previous word +// (if any). Bash then expects a sequence of output lines to be +// printed to stdout. If these lines all contain a common prefix +// longer than the cursor word, bash will replace the cursor word +// with that common prefix, and display nothing. If there isn't such +// a common prefix, bash will display the lines in pages using 'more'. +// +// ** Strategy taken for command line completions: +// If we can deduce either the exact flag intended, or a common flag +// prefix, we'll output exactly that. Otherwise, if information +// must be displayed to the user, we'll take the opportunity to add +// some helpful information beyond just the flag name (specifically, +// we'll include the default flag value and as much of the flag's +// description as can fit on a single terminal line width, as specified +// by the flag --tab_completion_columns). Furthermore, we'll try to +// make bash order the output such that the most useful or relevent +// flags are the most likely to be shown at the top. +// +// ** Additional features: +// To assist in finding that one really useful flag, substring matching +// was implemented. Before pressing a to get completion for the +// current word, you can append one or more '?' to the flag to do +// substring matching. Here's the semantics: +// --foo Show me all flags with names prefixed by 'foo' +// --foo? Show me all flags with 'foo' somewhere in the name +// --foo?? Same as prior case, but also search in module +// definition path for 'foo' +// --foo??? Same as prior case, but also search in flag +// descriptions for 'foo' +// Finally, we'll trim the output to a relatively small number of +// flags to keep bash quiet about the verbosity of output. If one +// really wanted to see all possible matches, appending a '+' to the +// search word will force the exhaustive list of matches to be printed. +// +// ** How to have bash accept completions from a binary: +// Bash requires that it be informed about each command that programmatic +// completion should be enabled for. Example addition to a .bashrc +// file would be (your path to gflags_completions.sh file may differ): + +/* +$ complete -o bashdefault -o default -o nospace -C \ + '/usr/local/bin/gflags_completions.sh --tab_completion_columns $COLUMNS' \ + time env binary_name another_binary [...] +*/ + +// This would allow the following to work: +// $ /path/to/binary_name --vmodule +// Or: +// $ ./bin/path/another_binary --gfs_u +// (etc) +// +// Sadly, it appears that bash gives no easy way to force this behavior for +// all commands. That's where the "time" in the above example comes in. +// If you haven't specifically added a command to the list of completion +// supported commands, you can still get completions by prefixing the +// entire command with "env". +// $ env /some/brand/new/binary --vmod +// Assuming that "binary" is a newly compiled binary, this should still +// produce the expected completion output. + + +#ifndef GOOGLE_GFLAGS_COMPLETIONS_H_ +#define GOOGLE_GFLAGS_COMPLETIONS_H_ + +namespace google { + +void HandleCommandLineCompletions(void); + +} + +#endif // GOOGLE_GFLAGS_COMPLETIONS_H_ -- cgit v1.2.1
