Hi

To set up a run argument, based on the document, it should be
Settings set target.run-args  , like gdb set args

However, no matter how, I cannot set my argument to –Xxm100M
I tried
Settings set target.run-args –Xxm100M
Lldb: invalid option – X

I also tried
Settings set target.run-args “-Xxm100M”
Doesn’t work.


Unfortunately you seem to be right. The only way I have been able to make this
work is by saying:
(lldb) sett set target.run-args -- --Xxm100M
(lldb) r
Process 5112 launched: '/private/tmp/args' (x86_64)
argv[0] = args
argv[1] = --
argv[2] = --Xxm100M

but as you can see, this causes a spurious - - (double dash) to be passed down
to your inferior process
Seems worth of a bugzilla to me. With that said, while I have not tried it, I
am kinda optimistic that SBLaunchInfo (the API class) would not be subject to
the same bug, since this is more of a command-line issue than anything
