Command Line Class

To create the new CommandLine class, the new file wizard in QtCreator was used.  The wizard is started by selecting New File or Project... on the File menu.  The C++ type was selected under Files and Classes, and C++ Class was selected on the right upper box, which will create both a C++ header and a source file for the new class.

On the next dialog, the class name is entered and the wizard automatically creates the header and source file names along with the path, any of which can be changed.  A Qt base class can also be selected, but wasn't for this class.  The final dialog allow the new source files to be added to version control.  If QMake was being used, the file would be added to the QMake build file, but for CMake, this has to be done manually.

This new class now handles the version option along with using the Tester class for the test options and running the tests if specified on the command line.  The command line arguments are processed in the constructor, which sets a processed flag if the arguments result in using the command line only, or if an error occurs.  There are only command lines at the moment, so this flag is always set.  The intention is that the caller then checks this flag (via a constant access function) and if not set, the GUI will be started.

Besides the constructor, this class contains a private function for handling the version option and a function to get an output stream to the standard output device (which the output stream on the first call).  The destructor deletes this output device if it was created.  The class contains members for the program base name (no access function since it is currently only used internally), the processed flag, the output stream and a list of strings for the GPL statement.

Previously there was a function to output the GPL statement.  As part of the constructor, a list of strings is created for this statement.  The QT_TR_NOOP() macro is used (verses the tr() function) so that the strings will be found by the translation utilities.  Only if the tr() function is used later on the strings will translations be used.  This list is passed to the Tester class for output, but the tr() function is not used on the strings so they will not be translated in the test output (to make sure test results match the expected results).

The main function now creates a CommandLine instance passing the command line arguments to the constructor.  If the processed flag is set (for now it will be), a single slot timer is connected to the application quit function to force the program to quit upon entered the event processing loop.  The Tester class run function was modified to accept the GPL statement string list, which is output when appropriate.
