-- Natools.Getopt_Long is a native Ada implementation of getopt_long()      --
-- processor for command line arguments.                                    --
--                                                                          --
-- This package is generic, and its only formal parameter is a descrete     --
-- type supposed to cover all command-line options.                         --
--                                                                          --
-- Configuration objects hold the list of recognized options and parameters --
-- about how to process them. Options can have a single-character short     --
-- name or a multiple-character long name. Moreover, there is no limit to   --
-- the number of flag names referring to the same Option_Id value.          --
--                                                                          --
-- Once the Configuration object has been filled with flags recognized      --
-- by the client, the actual command-line arguments can be processed,       --
-- using the handler callbacks from a Handlers.Callback'Class object.       --
--                                                                          --
-- Callback subprograms for normal operation are Option, for command-line   --
-- flags identified by their Option_Id, and Argument, for top-level command --
-- line arguments. There are also callbacks for error conditions (missing   --
-- or unexpected argument, unknown option), whose implementation in         --
-- Handlers.Callback are simply to raise Option_Error with an appropriate   --
-- message.                                                                 --
