Thought I might be more specific.
I have the following command (ABNF with implied whitespace at
obvious places):
cmdline = "tence" ["-h"] *("-i" dirlist) 1*("-r" file 1*(test))
and this completion function:
-------------------------
#compdef tence
local context line state
typeset -A opt_args
_arguments -s : \
{-h,--help} \
'*'{-i,--include-path}'=:include_path:->incpath' \
'*'{-r,--run}'=:file:->testfile:*::class:->testclass'
case $state in
incpath)
_dir_list && return 0
;;
testfile)
_files -g '*(.)' && return 0
;;
testclass)
# offer tests defined by this file for completion
local -a tests
tests=($(_call_program tests tence -C $words[1]))
compadd "$@" -a tests && return 0
;;
esac
return 1
-------------------------
with "mycmd -r F a b c <CURSOR>" on the command line, completion
should offer not only further tests (d e f), but "-r" as well.
I don't want to pollute the interface with dummy arguments to halt
the class optarg processing on, and also would love to defer as much
as possible work to the standard functions.
_arguments is already there, I don't want to write another parser.
