Escaping "run" command line options in cygwin

Question

I'm having trouble passing arguments via run on Windows

To demonstrate this, it looks something like this:

run C:\foo.exe /BUILD

The '/ BUILD' parameter is never passed to the executable. Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks!

Answer 1

The correct answer after numerous studies was to pass this through a batch file - forcing only one cmd to run, passing all the execution to a batch file.

Answer 2

I do not use Cygwin much, but it is possible:

run 'c:\foo.exe /BUILD'

(if not single, then possibly double quotes?)

Answer 3

, :

run "C:\foo.exe /BUILD"

, , - , "run" /BUILD, .

Answer 4

foo.exe, , /build? info run, :

Windows  programs  are  either  GUI  programs or console programs. When
started console  programs  will  either  attach  to an existing console
or  create a new one. GUI programs can  never attach to an exiting con-
sole. There is no way to attach to an existing console but hide  it  if
started as GUI program.

run  will  do this for you. It works  as intermediate and starts a pro-
gram but makes the console window hidden.
