Command line argument that followed the switch
GetCmdLineArgreturns the value for the Switchoption on the command-line, if any is given. Command-line arguments are considered switches if they start with one of the characters in the SwitchCharsset. The value is the command-line argument following the switch command-line argument.
Gnu-style (long) Options of the form switch=value are not supported.
The StdSwitchCharsconstant can be used as value for the SwitchCharsparameter.
The GetCmdLineArg does not check whether the value of the option does not start with a switch character. i.e.
myprogram -option1 -option2
will result in "-option2" as the result of the GetCmdLineArgcall for option1.
