Incorrect command string passed to process manager

[timfallmk]

When spawning the child process, the cmd that's reported to the system (accessible via ps and top etc.) truncates the process name.

For example: A child process that's command --flag verb is reported as --flag verb

ps -p <pid>
  PID TTY           TIME CMD
 6483 ??         0:01.78 --flag verb

I suspect this is related to #33 and #34

@timfallmk It can be caused by an incorrect Context.Args value. A value of Context.Args field is passed to os.StartProcess without any modifications exclude a case when the value is nil. Please see os.StartProcess, os.Args for the reference. Could you provide the code and info about OS and environment (go env && uname -a).

If the expected behavior is as you outlined, then this is a bug.

I checked it on examples/gd-simple and i can't reproduce the bug.

➜  examples git:(master) ✗ gd-simple
➜  examples git:(master) ✗ ps -eafwA | grep sample
  501 38137     1   0 11:24   ??         0:00.01 [go-daemon sample]

When i comment line no 23 of the code:

➜  examples git:(master) ✗ gd-simple
➜  examples git:(master) ✗ ps -eafwA | grep gd-simple
  501 37910     1   0 11:22   ??         0:00.01 gd-simple
➜  examples git:(master) ✗ kill `cat pid`
➜  examples git:(master) ✗ gd-simple -a -b 
➜  examples git:(master) ✗ ps -eafwA | grep gd-simple
  501 37999     1   0 11:23   ??         0:00.01 gd-simple -a -b

Could you provide a reduced example of code and steps to reproduce the bug. Thank you.
