78 /* Standalone applications get correct prototypes for getopt_long and
79 getopt_long_only; they declare "char **argv". libc uses prototypes
80 with "char *const *argv" that are incorrect because getopt_long and
81 getopt_long_only can permute argv; this is required for backward
82 compatibility (e.g., for LSB 2.0.1).
84 This used to be `#if defined __GETOPT_PREFIX && !defined __need_getopt',
85 but it caused redefinition warnings if both unistd.h and getopt.h were
86 included, since unistd.h includes getopt.h having previously defined
89 The only place where __getopt_argv_const is used is in definitions
90 of getopt_long and getopt_long_only below, but these are visible
91 only if __need_getopt is not defined, so it is quite safe to rewrite
92 the conditional as follows:
94 #if !defined __need_getopt

105 that does not exist if we are standalone. So: if __GNU_LIBRARY__ is
106 not defined, include <ctype.h>, which will pull in <features.h> for us
107 if it's from glibc. (Why ctype.h? It's guaranteed to exist and it

171 to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
172 left unchanged if the option is not found.
174 To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
175 a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
176 option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
177 value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
178 one). For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
179 returns the contents of the `val' field. */
