Incomplete help-command in ipyc.exe

Open CFTSeb opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Description

The help command in ipyc.exe is incomplete. Adding of meta information, which is a feature in ipyc.exe, is not documented in ipyc.exe /h. This is very unhelpful, since the feature was available in former (<2.7.7) versions via ipy.exe ipyc.py and the user may look for features in help commands.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. ipyc.py /h

Expected behavior: Information on /fileversion /copyright /productname /productversion

Actual behavior: No information on metadata documented

Versions

=2.7.9,.. 3.4.0 alpha

Thanks for the report!

As a workaround, usage info is available in the ipyc README. If anyone is interested in backporting this, it was fixed in IronPython 3 as part of https://github.com/IronLanguages/ironpython3/pull/1316.
