     34 // This file contains code for handling the 'reporting' flags.  These
     35 // are flags that, when present, cause the program to report some
     36 // information and then exit.  --help and --version are the canonical
     37 // reporting flags, but we also have flags like --helpxml, etc.
     38 //
     39 // There's only one function that's meant to be called externally:
     40 // HandleCommandLineHelpFlags().  (Well, actually, ShowUsageWithFlags(),
     41 // ShowUsageWithFlagsRestrict(), and DescribeOneFlag() can be called
     42 // externally too, but there's little need for it.)  These are all
     43 // declared in the main commandlineflags.h header file.
     44 //
     45 // HandleCommandLineHelpFlags() will check what 'reporting' flags have
     46 // been defined, if any -- the "help" part of the function name is a
     47 // bit misleading -- and do the relevant reporting.  It should be
     48 // called after all flag-values have been assigned, that is, after
     49 // parsing the command-line.
