What is the "Best Practice" for parsing the commandline (GNU sytle) with
Java 1.4 in a commercial project ?

Jakarka Commons CLI?
Jargs?
Re-invent wheel?
Other?

Cheers,
Lordy

Not sure there is a "best practice" but another choice to add to your
list is the Java version of GNU's getopt:

This is a good choice if you are porting a C app to Java that used getopt.
