// This is a very basic command line parsing class. We pass the command line
// arguments and their number and the class forms a vector out of these. Than we
// should set up the flags - we provide a name and a string value and map these.
//
// Example use of this class:
// 1. Create a CommandLineParser object.
// 2. Configure the flags you want to support with SetFlag calls.
// 3. Call Init with your program's argc+argv parameters.
// 4. Parse the flags by calling ProcessFlags.
// 5. Get the values of the flags using GetFlag.
