Description

PosixParser doesn't stop on "--" tokens if the option preceding the token expects an argument. GnuParser is not affected by this issue.

Test case:

public void testDoubleHyphenToken() throws Exception
{
    Options options = new Options();
    options.addOption(OptionBuilder.hasArg().create('n'));
    options.addOption(OptionBuilder.create('m'));

    CommandLine cl = parser.parse(options, new String[] { "-n", "--", "-m" });

    assertTrue(cl.hasOption("n"));
    assertFalse(cl.hasOption("m"));
}
