debugargs

The debugargs function specifies a list of arguments to pass to the application when run under the debugger.

#!lua
debugargs { "args" }

Note that this settings is not implemented for Xcode 3, which requires a per-user configuration file in order to make it work.

In Visual Studio, this file can be overridden by a per-user configuration file (such as ProjectName.vcproj.MYDOMAIN-MYUSERNAME.user). Removing this file (which is done by Premake's clean action) will restore the default settings.

Added in Premake 4.4.

Applies To

Parameters

args is a Lua list of arguments to provide to the executable while debugging.

Examples

#!lua
configuration "Debug"
