What is the lldb equivalent of gdb's --args?

Question

I'm used to running gdb like so:

$ gdb --args exe --lots --of --flags -a -b -c d e
...
(gdb) r

Is there an equivalent for lldb?

Answer 1

Yes, it's just -- instead of --args. From the help:

lldb -v [[--] <PROGRAM-ARG-1> [<PROGRAM_ARG-2> ...]]

Thus:

$ lldb -- exe --lots --of --flags -a -b -c d e

Note that if you came here searching for "how to make lldb run my program immediately", you will want to use lldb -o run -- exe --flags. Also see this question – Willena

Answer 2

You can also start lldb first and use:

(lldb) settings set target.run-args 1 2 3
(lldb) run

or:

(lldb) process launch -- <args>

That was helpful! – Fitzhugh

If you want to add option arguments starting with '-' you can use: settings set -- target.run-args "-d" – Valaree

Answer 3

just run 'run arg1 arg2' in lldb
