-- 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 flags, including a special value --
-- for non-flag command-line arguments.                                     --
--                                                                          --
-- Option_Definitions objects hold the list of recognized flags. Flags 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 Option_Definitions object has been filled with flags recognized --
-- by the client, the actual command-line arguments can be processed.       --
-- Process subprogram uses an Option_Definitions objects and a callback     --
-- procedure that is repeatedly called for each command-line flag and       --
-- argument found in the command line.                                      --
--                                                                          --
-- Process also optionally uses callbacks for error conditions, which       --
-- allows the client application to recover from it and allow command-line  --
-- processing to continue. If there is no error callback (null access),     --
-- an Option_Error exception is raised.                                     --
