int process_option_string
(
	const char *arg,
	int (*option_fn)(const char *,const char *)
);

PARAMETERS

const char *arg: String of options as {<opt>=<val>}

DESCRIPTION

This routine parses a string of options and sends them to (*option_fn). This routine is similar to kjb_process_option_string(), but it does not use a default value for option_fn (and thus option_fn cannot be NULL). This routine is used in place of kjb_process_option_string() when additional control over the loading of functions is required; specically when one wants to diable the loading implied by the default option_fn. Like kjb_process_option_string(), the option function must be able to handle the cases (<option>, <value>), (<option>, ""), (<option>,"?"), and ("", ""). Normally, these correspond to the cases of setting an option, requesting the value of an option in a sentence, requesting the value of the option as it would be typed to set it, and requesting the values of all options, respectively.

RETURNS

On success NO_ERROR is returned and on failure ERROR is returned.

DISCLAIMER

This software is not adequatedly tested. It is recomended that results are checked independantly where appropriate.
