How to find out with option was triggered

[anabellchan]

I'm wondering if there's an elegant way of knowing which option has been set, so that a proper method can be called. For example:

        p.Setup<List<string>>("a", "addproducts")                      
            .Callback(items => arguments.NewNumbers = items);
        p.Setup<List<string>>("r", "removeproducts")                   
            .Callback(items => arguments.RemoveNumbers = items);
        p.Parse(args);

        if (arguments.NewNumbers != null)
            return ConfirmProductNumbers(arguments);
        else if (arguments.RemoveNumbers != null)
            return ConfirmProductNumbers(arguments);

Thanks for your time.

I've refactored to:

        P.Setup<List<string>>("a", "addproducts")                       // option --a or --addproducts
            .Callback(items => AddProductNumbers(items, commandArguments));
        P.Setup<List<string>>("r", "removeproducts")                    // option --r or --removeproducts
            .Callback(items => RemoveProductNumbers(items, commandArguments));
        P.Parse(args);

Callback methos is being called.

However, it would be nice to pick up a return value from the callback method as well.

Thanks!

@anabellchan I think that git style commands would be best suited for this.
