Programming

I have tried lots of stuff but i can't get it working, i have also found a Thread in this Forum about it but it didn't describe how the program has to be run ect.

My issue is that i want to run a program with multiple arguments eg.

./myprog arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5

with dbx, but i cant get it working...


This was the Thread i mentioned:
dbx debugger + argv[argc]

Can somebody give me an example ?

Thanks would be awesome,

Just use the run command followed by the arguments you want to pass.

I have tried going into dbx

dbx

then i enter

run programname argument

it says: cannot read run programname argument

Any Ideas?

Sure. "run" expects the program's arguments but not the program name itself which should be passed to the dbx command.

Thank you very much! i executed "dbx programname" after this "run arg1 arg2" and it actually runs, i tried to put in a breakpoint beforehand why doesn't it stop & why do i see the program output instead of the "debugger"? The only way i can go into it properly is Ctrl+C. Thanks for the response already!

Please post you whole dbx session output (enclosed with code tags).
