plStringView	GetOptionValue (LogMode logMode, const plCommandLineUtils *pUtils=plCommandLineUtils::GetGlobalInstance()) const
	Returns the value of this option. Either what was specified on the command line, or the default value.

void	SetDefaultValue (plStringView sValue)
	Modifies the default value.

plStringView	GetDefaultValue () const
	Returns the default value.

virtual plStringView	GetType () override
	Returns "String".

virtual void	GetOptions (plStringBuilder &ref_sOut) const override
	Writes all the supported options (e.g. '-arg') to 'out'. If more than one option is allowed, they should be separated with semicolons or pipes.

virtual void	GetParamShortDesc (plStringBuilder &ref_sOut) const override
	Returns a very short description of the option (type). For example "<int>" or "<enum>".

virtual void	GetParamDefaultValueDesc (plStringBuilder &ref_sOut) const override
	Returns a very short string for the options default value. For example "0" or "auto".

virtual void	GetLongDesc (plStringBuilder &ref_sOut) const override
	Returns a proper description of the option.

bool	IsOptionSpecified (plStringBuilder out_pWhich=nullptr, const plCommandLineUtils pUtils=plCommandLineUtils::GetGlobalInstance()) const
	Checks whether any of the option variants is set on the command line, and returns which one. For example '-h' or '-help'.

Public Member Functions inherited from plCommandLineOption
	plCommandLineOption (plStringView sSortingGroup)

virtual void	GetSortingGroup (plStringBuilder &ref_sOut) const
	Writes the sorting group name to 'out'.

void	GetSplitOptions (plStringBuilder &out_sAll, plDynamicArray< plStringView > &ref_splitOptions) const
	Returns the supported option names (e.g. '-arg') as split strings.

static bool	LogAvailableOptions (LogAvailableModes mode, plStringView sGroupFilter={}, const plCommandLineUtils *pUtils=plCommandLineUtils::GetGlobalInstance())
	Prints all available options to the plLog.

static bool	LogAvailableOptionsToBuffer (plStringBuilder &out_sBuffer, LogAvailableModes mode, plStringView sGroupFilter={}, const plCommandLineUtils *pUtils=plCommandLineUtils::GetGlobalInstance())
	Same as LogAvailableOptions() but captures the output from plLog and returns it in an plStringBuilder.
