    I can/can't get the data from the command line.

Go back and read about resource databases again.  Instead of

XrmGetResource (comDB, ".dataBase", ".DataBase", string_type, &value)

you need something like

char name[256], class[256];
strcpy(name, argv[0]);
strcat(name, ".dataBase");
strcpy(class, argv[0]);
strcat(class, ".DataBase");
XrmGetResource (comDB, name, class, string_type, &value)


      I try to get the property of XA_WM_NAME, but just get Segmentation error.

PLEASE learn to use lint before bothering people on this list.  Your call to
XGetWindowProperty is missing an argument and has another argument passed
incorrectly.
