NAME

       Getopt::Complete::Options - a command-line options specification

VERSION

       This document describes Getopt::Complete 0.26

SYNOPSIS

       This is used internally by Getopt::Complete during compile.

        my $opts = Getopt::Complete::Options->new(
           'myfile=s' => 'f',
           'mydir=s@'  => 'd',
           '<>' => ['one','two','three']
        );

        $opts->option_names;
        # myfile mydir

        $opts->option_spec("mydir")
        # '=s@'

        $opts->option_handler("myfile")
        # 'f'

        $opts->option_handler("<>")
        # ['one','two','three'];

        $opts->handle_shell_completion;
        # if it detects it is talking to the shell completer, it will respond and then exit

        # this method is used by the above, then makes a Getopt::Complete::Args.
        ($text_typed,$option_name,$remainder_of_argv) = $self->parse_completion_request($comp_words,$comp_cword);

DESCRIPTION

       Objects of this class are used to construct a Getop::Complete::Args from a list of
       command-line arguments.  It specifies what options are available to the command line,
       helping to direct the parser.

       It also specifies what values are valid for those options, and provides an API for access
       by the shell to do tab-completion.

       The valid values list is also used by Getopt::Complete::Args to validate its option
       values, and produce the error list it generates.
