Intrinsic define (macro value) set by the compiler

Syntax

` FB_ARGC

`

Description

Substituted with the number of arguments passed in on the command line including the name of the executable.

(for example : myprogram parm1, parm2, param3 --> __FB_ARGC__ = 4)

__FB_ARGC__ 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.

Examples

start GeSHi

Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To __FB_ARGC__ - 1
        Print "arg "; i; " = '"; Command(i); "'"
Next i

end GeSHi
