prog Command

The prog command manages programs being debugged and their attributes. It has identical syntax and identical functionality in native mode and Java mode.

prog -executable

Prints the full path of the executable, - if the program was attached to using -.

prog -argv

Prints the whole argv, including argv[0].

prog -args

Prints the argv, excluding argv[0].

prog -stdin

Prints < filename or empty if stdin is used.

prog -stdout
