Summary | 0001833: Ambiguity about empty string used as option-argument | ||||||||||||
Description |
The second sentence of item 2a precludes the use of the empty string as an option-argument. [-p <string>] and [-p<string>] are equivalent only if <string> is not the empty string. [-p ""] and [-p""] are not equivalent. The ambiguity of the single-argument case can be solved by appending "unless the option-argument is the empty string" at the end of the second sentence of item 2a. In other words, the <blank> character separating option and option-argument is optional, unless the option-argument is the empty string. |
||||||||||||
Desired Action |
Change the second sentence of item 2a from this: However, a conforming implementation shall also permit applications to specify the option and option-argument in the same argument string without intervening <blank> characters. to this: However, a conforming implementation shall also permit applications to specify the option and option-argument in the same argument string without intervening <blank> characters unless the option-argument is the empty string. |
