## Chapter 7. Flagged Options

A `FlaggedOption` is a value preceded by either a long or short flag indicating the value's meaning (see the example in Chapter 2). The `FlaggedOption` class provides a `setAllowMultipleDeclarations(boolean)` method that informs `JSAP` whether the `FlaggedOption` may be repeated on the command line. For example, if your program uses a `FlaggedOption` to specify an input file (say, "-i file"), multiple declarations will allow your users to enter "-i file1 -i file2 -i file3 ...". The multiple values can be accessed through `JSAPResult`'s `getXXXArray()` methods.
