GDB : wildcard in the program arguments [message #693518]

Hi,

I am trying to debug a test using the google test framework.
I want to run <my exe> with the arguments --gtest_color=false --gtest_filter=*${selected_text}*.*

In fact I suspect gdb to replace the * with what my working directory contains.
I tried --gtest_filter="*${selected_text}*.*" or --gtest_filter='*${selected_text}*.*'. It is still failling

In the application console I have the message:
<my exe>: No match.
In the gdb console I have :
warning: Can not parse XML OS data; XML support was disabled at compile time

If I remove the parameter containing the wildcards it works great and I can debug my application.

Thanks for your help and time.

The problem was solved by using single quote ' to escape the wildcard.
--gtest_filter='*${selected_text}*.*'
I cannot figure out why it failed the first time I tried it. Probably a misstyping.
