Methods

init(argc, argv, workingDir, state)

This method assumes a native character set, and is meant to be called
with the argc/argv passed to main(). Talk to bsmedberg if you need to
create a command line using other data. argv will not be altered in any
way.

On Windows, the “native” character set is UTF-8, not the native codepage.

Parameters

setWindowContext(aWindow)

Set the windowContext parameter.

run()

Process the command-line handlers in the proper order, calling “handle()” on
each.

@throws NS_ERROR_ABORT if any handler throws NS_ERROR_ABORT. All other errors
thrown by handlers will be silently ignored.

Attributes

helpText

Process and combine the help text provided by each command-line handler.
