The title says it all friends!
How do I give command line arguments to an executable whose execution I want to monitor using ltrace/strace ?
For example, if the executable is 'a.out' and I want to store ltrace's output in a file 'out.txt' and 'arg1' is a command line argument that I want to pass to the execuable, then the command I tried is this "ltrace ./a.out -o arg1 out.txt"
The problem is my program is designed to work only for a single command line argument, so when I run the above command, my program interprets this as multiple command line arguments and stops execution after printing a "Usage" message (it is actually designed to do this but here I want to monitor the library calls it is making).
Can someone please help me out ? Thanks in advance. :)
