I have a Windows executable (whoami) which is crashing every so often. It’s called from another process to get details about the current user and domain. I’d like to know what parameters are passed when it fails.

Does anyone know of an appropriate way to wrap the process and write it’s command line arguments to log while still calling the process?

Say the command is used like this: ‘whoami.exe /all’

I’d like a script to exist instead of the whoami.exe (with the same filename) which will write this invocation to log and then pass on the call to the actual process.

    From a batch file:

    echo Parameters: %* >> logfile.txt whoami.exe %* 

    With the caveat that you can have problems if the parameters contain spaces (and you passed the in escaping with ‘), because the command-line parser basically de-escapes them and they should be re-escaped before passed to an other executable.
