Ok, I did some digging and there appears to be a CommandLine() function that returns a Vector<String>&. When I run the program from command line, the following returns a value of ZERO:

const Vector<String>& argc = CommandLine();

cout << "argc = " << to_string(argc.GetCount()) << endl;

In a C or C++ program with main(int argc, char **argv) provided, and the program is launched with no arguments, argc returns a value of 1, so why does the count for the String Vector for CommandLine() come back as ZERO?
