[line 52]

Setting this to true will tell the parser that the argument expects more than one argument and that argument values should be stored in an array.
  • Var: Whether the argument expects multiple values
  • Access: public

Type:   boolean


[ Top ]

$optional =  false

[line 62]

Setting this to true will tell the parser that the argument is optional and can be ommited.

Note that it is not a good practice to make arguments optional, it is the role of the options to be optional, by essence.

  • Var: Whether the argument is optional or not.
  • Access: public

Type:   boolean
