Command-line support

Arm® Forge provides a list of useful command options and is a convenient quick reference for the command syntax to use with Arm® Forge components. Use the --help command prefixed with the target product component name.

For example, <install_directory>/bin/forge --help displays the syntax for the command to debug an MPI program, and lists the options and arguments that you can use to adjust the outcome:

Usage: ddt [OPTION...] [PROGRAM [PROGRAM_ARGS]]
    ddt [OPTION...] (mpirun|mpiexec|aprun|...) [MPI_ARGS] PROGRAM
 [PROGRAM_ARGS]
Start DDT and use it to select and start an MPI program for debugging.

--attach=[host1:]pid1,[host2:]pid2... [PROGRAM]
                   attach to PROGRAM being run by list of host:pid pairs
--attach-file=FILE [PROGRAM]
                   attach to PROGRAM being run by list of host:pid pairs
                   specified in FILE
...
