Name : python-gflags
Product : Fedora EPEL 5
Version : 1.4
Release : 2.el5
URL :
http://code.google.com/p/python-gflags/
Summary : Commandline flags module for Python
Description :
This project is the python equivalent of google-gflags, a Google commandline
flag implementation for C++. It is intended to be used in situations where a
project wants to mimic the command-line flag handling of a C++ app that uses
google-gflags, or for a Python app that, via swig or some other means, is
linked with a C++ app that uses google-gflags.
The gflags package contains a library that implements commandline flags
processing. As such it's a replacement for getopt(). It has increased
flexibility, including built-in support for Python types, and the ability to
define flags in the source file in which they're used. (This last is its major
difference from OptParse.)
