Hello,
This patch series aims at simplifying the command parsing logic done in pretty much all the cmd/foo.c files by adding a few macros that help defining sub-commands attach to the main entry point.
When you use those macros you also get sub-command auto-completion for free (the rest of the auto-completion still has to be done manually).
Support for several levels of sub commands is not supported but can easily be added if needed.
Some details about the patches:
- Patch 1 is a fix for the auto-completion code that I had to do have auto-completion in the mtd command working correctly (I can submit it separately if needed) - Patch 2 is exposing a function to ease support of auto-completion of sub-commands - Patch 3 is adding a set of macros to easily declare the sub-commands attached to the main command - Patch 4 is making use of this new infrastructure in cmd/mtd.c.
Regards,
Boris
