Having options and flags starting with a capital letter is relatively frequent (
optarg
supports it for the convention of using it to negate the lowercase version). Currently, defining it independently doesn't work (as it tries to dinamically generate an invalid method name):In the implementation, I just skip the generation of that method, following the same rationale as when reserved words are used (
--class
) that the value is still available through the hash lookup, or if we defined any synonym. The regular expression could be expanded to catch other valid options that generate invalid method names (numbers come to mind), but I kept it as simple as possible for my use case. Feel free to expand it (or ask me to do it).
