longconv.pl could use Getopts::Long to parse the options provided on the
command line

This will allow us to use extended options if needed, in the future.

Example: we could allow the user to say --verbose in addition to -V

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:02:02 UTC

This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 4 Sankar Ramalingam 2012-11-19 10:45:08 UTC

Marking the bug as Verified since logconv.pl tool in now enhanced with getopts. 

[root@newsankarlapy ~]# logconv.pl --help
Usage:

 ./logconv.pl [-h] [-d|--rootdn <rootDN>] [-s|--sizeLimit <size limit>] [-v|verison] [-Vi|verbose]
 [-S|--startTime <start time>] [-E|--endTime <end time>] 
 [-efcibaltnxrgjuyp] [ access log ... ... ]

- Commandline Switches:

         -h, --help         help/usage
         -d, --rootDN        <Directory Managers DN>  DEFAULT -> cn=directory manager
         -s, --sizeLimit    <Number of results to return per catagory>  DEFAULT -> 20
         -X, --excludeIP    <IP address to exclude from connection stats>  E.g. Load balancers
         -v, --version      show version of tool
         -S, --startTime    <time to begin analyzing logfile from>
             E.g. "[28/Mar/2002:13:14:22 -0800]"
         -E, --endTime      <time to stop analyzing logfile>
             E.g. "[28/Mar/2002:13:24:62 -0800]"
         -m, --reportFileSecs  <CSV output file - per second stats>
         -M, --reportFileMins  <CSV output file - per minute stats>
         -V, --verbose         <enable verbose output - includes all stats listed below>
