Customize your class-based option

Implement ICommand

You can add options to your command by simply adding properties to your class. The properties can have any type, you just have to be sure there is a converter for this type (see the list of built-in converters).

You can customize the behavior of the options with some annotations (the parser supports the annotations from System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations):

• Use System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.DisplayAttribute and some of its properties:
  • Name and ShortName to respectively change the long and short form of the option
  • Description to define a description in the auto-generated help for the option,
• Use any of the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationAttribute derived class to validate the value provided for the option.
