Jussi Pakkanen ☛ Jussi Pakkanen: Reimplementing argparse in Pystd
One of the pieces of the Python standard library I tend to use the most is argparse. It is really convenient so I chose to implement that in Pystd. The conversion was fairly simple, with one exception. As C++ is not duck typed, adapting the behaviour to be strictly typed while still feeling "the same" took some thinking. Parsing command line options is also quite complicated and filled with weird edge cases. For example, if you have short options -a and -b, then according to some command line parsers (but not others) an argument of -ab is valid (but only sometimes).
