boost is more reasonable.

kkarbowiak commented 11 months ago

The behaviour is due to ability to pass joined flags. That is, -ap is equivalent to -a -p. And since you defined the -a option, it is accepted and the next one (-p) is unrecognised.

jarro2783 commented 11 months ago

Yes, in this case only the option p is the unrecognised one.

If we have an option --parallel [int] -p [std::string]. The input is -parallel, we can't get correct tips for parallel.

I don't understand the question. Can you explain a bit more what the problem is?
