FB_ARGV

Intrinsic define (macro value) set by the compiler

Syntax

__FB_ARGV__

Description

Substituted with a pointer to a list of pointers to the zero terminated command line arguments passed in on the command line including the name of the executable.

__FB_ARGV__ is the name of a parameter passed to the program's implicit main function, and therefore is only defined in the module level code of the main module for an application.
