Method: Trollop.die

Defined in:
lib/trollop.rb

.die(arg, msg = nil) ⇒ Object

Informs the user that their usage of ‘arg’ was wrong, as detailed by ‘msg’, and dies. Example:

options do
  opt :volume, :default => 0.0
end

die :volume, "too loud" if opts[:volume] > 10.0
die :volume, "too soft" if opts[:volume] < 0.1

In the one-argument case, simply print that message, a notice about -h, and die. Example:

options do
  opt :whatever # ...
end

Trollop::die "need at least one filename" if ARGV.empty?
