NAME

fuse_parse_cmdline — FUSE helper function to parse command line arguments

SYNOPSIS

#include <fuse.h>

int
fuse_parse_cmdline(struct fuse_args *args, char **mp, int *mt, int *fg);

DESCRIPTION

fuse_parse_cmdline() is a helper function to parse standard FUSE arguments. args can be constructed using the FUSE_ARGS_INIT(3) macro.

fuse_parse_cmdline() supports the following arguments.

-d, -odebug

Causes debug information for subsequent FUSE library calls to be output to stderr. Implies -f.

-f

If this is specified then fg will be set to 1 on success. This flag indicates that the file system should not detach from the controlling terminal and run in the foreground.

-h, --help, -ho

Print usage information for the options supported by fuse_parse_cmdline().

-s

If this is specified then mt will be set to 0 on success. This flag indicates that the file system should be run in multi-threaded mode. -s is currently ignored and mt will always be 0.

-V, --version

Print the FUSE library version to stderr.

If the first argument not recognised by fuse_parse_cmdline() is a valid directory then mp will be set to the canonicalized absolute pathname of this directory.

RETURN VALUES

The fuse_parse_cmdline() function will return 0 on success and -1 if -h, --help, -ho, -v or --version are included in argv or mp does not exist or is not a directory.
