Bug ID: 244111
Summary: Improve "invalid option" error message for malformed
flags
Product: WebKit
Version: WebKit Nightly Build
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: Enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: JavaScriptCore
Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
Reporter: tjc at igalia.com
I found the following error message to be confusing:
```
[ org.webkit.Sdk GTK at Debug WebKit]$ WebKitBuild/GTK/Debug/bin/jsc -m JSTests/wasm/gc/arrays.js --useWebAssemblyGC
ERROR: invalid option: --useWebAssemblyGC
```
Eventually I figured out that the flag needs to be `--useWebAssemblyGC=true`. It would be nice if, in general, rather than just "invalid option", the error message included a hint about what the argument for the flag should be.
