Kirk Lund commented on GEODE-2203: ---------------------------------- [~dalyssakim] For some reason I'm unable to assign this to you as well -- I'm guessing it's related to permissions but I'll try to find out on Monday. For the Geode1.0 release we removed geode-joptsimple module which was a fork of jopt-simple. GFSH was using this fork to perform validation of command arguments. When we switched to a dependency on a regular binary release of jopt-simple, we lost that detailed validation. The code in GFSH that used the old geode-joptsimple is still there and all of the GFSH code needs quite a bit of cleanup. [~jinmeiliao] has a branch where she's replacing the use of jopt-simple with using just spring shell for parsing -- this might be something to keep in mind or you might even want to checkout her branch. > gfsh status locator/server - Give more descriptive output on empty parameter > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GEODE-2203 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2203 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: gfsh > Reporter: Alyssa Kim > Assignee: Mark Bretl > Priority: Minor > > Currently, executing some status commands in gfsh without valid parameters > gives a vague explanation/output that might be misleading.
