1337156 - |mach run --debugparams| not working

Status: NEW

(Firefox Build System :: Mach Core, enhancement)

Description

[Botond Ballo [:botond]]

STR:
  With rr installed, run:

    ./mach run --debugger rr --debugparams "-M"

Expected results:

  mach runs rr with -M as an argument

Actual results:

  usage: mach [global arguments] run [command arguments]
  mach: error: argument --debugparams: expected one argument

If I instead try to escape the "-" in "-M" with a "\":

    ./mach run --debugger rr --debugparams "\-M"

mach passes the "\" on to rr:

    0:00.43 /home/botond/dev/mozilla/rr/obj/bin/rr \-M /home/botond/dev/mozilla/central/objdir-desktop-clang/dist/bin/firefox -no-remote -profile /home/botond/dev/mozilla/central/objdir-desktop-clang/tmp/scratch_user

which of course also doesn't work.
