Args.Get(...) returns a string value, as you have correctly coded
"sAbout = Args.Get("a", "about", "To test gb.args in GUI application")"

So, if you run the project using just
./projname -a
then it correctly says "argument missing for option -a".

Solution: 
1. Fix user :-)

If you just want a program option, that is one that does not have an
associated value, then use Args.Has()

e.g.

Dim sAOption as Boolean
...
sAOption=Args.Has("a",""about", "To test gb.args in GUI application")
...
