 argc and argv are not set when the application class ctor is being
executed (how could they, indeed? you need to create the object first
before modifying its fields!). To be precise they're set after
wxApp::Initialize() returns but all you really need to know in practice is
that they're available in your OnInit() -- which is normally the earliest
place where you can hook into the startup process.

 Try "p this->argc", gdb is not always smart where C++ is concerned.

 No, not at all. It crashes because argv is NULL, not because the debugger
can't find it.
