Let's find out why. + +First of all let's investigate what happens when we add `-?` to our command. If you look at the shell sources you'll see that if shell find `-?` as one of the command arguments it redirects command and all the rest arguments to the `help` command https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/ShellPkg/Application/Shell/Shell.c: +``` +/** + Reprocess the command line to direct all -? to the help command. + if found, will add "help" as argv[0], and move the rest later. + @param[in,out] CmdLine pointer to the command line to update +**/ +EFI_STATUS +DoHelpUpdate( + IN OUT CHAR16 **CmdLine + ) +{ + ... + if (StrStr(CurrentParameter, L"-?") == CurrentParameter) { + CurrentParameter[0] = L' '; + CurrentParameter[1] = L' '; + NewCmdLineSize = StrSize(L"help ") + StrSize(*CmdLine); + NewCommandLine = AllocateZeroPool(NewCmdLineSize); + if (NewCommandLine == NULL) { + Status = EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES; + break; + } + + // + // We know the space is sufficient since we just calculated it. + // + StrnCpyS(NewCommandLine, NewCmdLineSize/sizeof(CHAR16), L"help ", 5); + StrnCatS(NewCommandLine, NewCmdLineSize/sizeof(CHAR16), *CmdLine, StrLen(*CmdLine)); + SHELL_FREE_NON_NULL(*CmdLine); + *CmdLine = NewCommandLine; + break; + } + ... +} +``` + +You can verify that result would be the same if you use `help` command directly to our program: +``` +FS0:\> help HIIStringsMan.efi +HIIStringsMan application. +This is the synopsis section. +This is the description section. +This is the options section. +This is the section for examples and suggestions. +``` + +Now look at the `help` command source code https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/ShellPkg/Library/UefiShellLevel3CommandsLib/Help.c: +``` +SHELL_STATUS +EFIAPI +ShellCommandRunHelp ( + IN EFI_HANDLE ImageHandle, + IN EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE *SystemTable + ) + ... + // + // Get the section name for the given command name + // + if (ShellCommandLineGetFlag(Package, L"-section")) { + StrnCatGrow(&SectionToGetHelpOn, NULL, ShellCommandLineGetValue(Package, L"-section"), 0); + } else if (ShellCommandLineGetFlag(Package, L"-usage")) { + StrnCatGrow(&SectionToGetHelpOn, NULL, L"NAME,SYNOPSIS", 0); + } else if (ShellCommandLineGetFlag(Package, L"-verbose") || ShellCommandLineGetFlag(Package, L"-v")) { + } else { + // + // The output of help <command> will display NAME, SYNOPSIS, OPTIONS, DESCRIPTION, and EXAMPLES sections. + // + StrnCatGrow (&SectionToGetHelpOn, NULL, L"NAME,SYNOPSIS,OPTIONS,DESCRIPTION,EXAMPLES", 0); + } + ... +} +``` + +Here you can see how `help` parses its incoming arguments: +- by default the sections NAME, SYNOPSIS, OPTIONS, DESCRIPTION, EXAMPLES are printed, +- it is possible to print particular section with a `-section <SECTION NAME>` argument, +- it is possible to print all sections by supplying `-verbose` or `-v` argument + +You can verify this in shell: +``` +FS0:\> help HIIStringsMan.efi -v +HIIStringsMan application. +This is the synopsis section. +This is the description section. +This is the options section. +This is the return values section. +This is the section for used environment variables +This is the section for files associated with the subject. +This is the section for examples and suggestions. +This is the section for errors reported by the command. +This is the section for conformance to applicable standards. +This is the section for errors and caveats. +This is the section for categories. +This is an example of a custom section. +FS0:\> help HIIStringsMan.efi -section BUGS +This is the section for errors and caveats. +``` +The same goes for the `-?`: +``` +FS0:\> HIIStringsMan.efi -? -section "RETURN VALUES" +This is the return values section. +FS0:\> HIIStringsMan.efi -? -verbose +HIIStringsMan application. +This is the synopsis section. +This is the description section. +This is the options section. +This is the return values section. +This is the section for used environment variables +This is the section for files associated with the subject. +This is the section for examples and suggestions. +This is the section for errors reported by the command. +This is the section for conformance to applicable standards. +This is the section for errors and caveats. +This is the section for categories. +This is an example of a custom section. +``` + +# How the ShellManParser is called + +We've started this lesson with the assumption that `ShellManParser` will parse our application strings.
