This class inherits functionality for dealing with command line arguments from class <code lang="eiffel">ARGUMENTS</code>. It uses the feature <code lang="eiffel">separate_character_option_value</code> to return the values by option name for each of the two arguments. <code lang="eiffel">ARGUMENTS</code> provides a rich set of features for command line argument processing.
The simple version in [[#Solution|Solution]] below is as submitted to Rosetta Code to illustrate class <code lang="eiffel">ARGUMENTS</code>, but it should be noted that <code lang="eiffel">separate_character_option_value</code> is of a detached type and will return a void reference if no value is found for a specified character option. Therefore, a safer version of the use of <code lang="eiffel">separate_character_option_value</code> would include object test on the result:
<code>
if attached separate_character_option_value ('c') as l_val then
print ("Command line argument value for option 'c' is: ")
print (l_val + "%N")
end
if attached separate_character_option_value ('h') as l_val then
print ("Command line argument value for option 'h' is: ")
print (l_val + "%N")
end
</code>
