# unsafeArgv Access to the raw argv value from C. ``` static var unsafeArgv: UnsafeMutablePointer?> { get } ``` ## Discussion The value of this property is a `nil`-terminated C array. Including the trailing `nil`, there are [`argc`](/documentation/Swift/CommandLine/argc) `+ 1` elements in the array. > Note: Accessing the argument vector through this pointer is unsafe. > Where possible, use ``doc://com.apple.Swift/documentation/Swift/CommandLine/arguments`` instead. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
