ViewOptionHandler (Jenkins core 2.401.3 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.kohsuke.args4j.spi.OptionHandler<View>
- - hudson.cli.handlers.ViewOptionHandler

```
@MetaInfServices
public class ViewOptionHandler
extends org.kohsuke.args4j.spi.OptionHandler<View>
```
Refers to View by its name.
For example:

my_view_name
refers to a top level view with given name.

nested/inner
refers to a view named inner inside of a top level view group named nested.

View name is a non-empty sequence of View names delimited by '/'. Handler traverse the view names from left to right. First one is expected to be a top level view and all but the last one are expected to be instances of ViewGroup. Handler fails to resolve view provided a view with given name does not exist or a user was not granted View.READ permission.
