description

Maps command line arguments to the arguments of the make procedure of the command object conforming to EL_COMMAND. If no mapping errors occur during the initilization, the run procedure is called and executes the command.

notes

Implementing argument_specs specifies command option names, a description that becomes part of the help text, and validation procedures and associated descriptions.

Implementing default_make provides default arguments for initializing the command, which can then be overridden by the command line options specified in argument_specs.

The command.make routine must be exported to class EL_COMMAND_CLIENT
