Description: During our regular coding, Sometimes we want to invoke the other process to perform some actions like for example:
i have the command which performs some predefined task
I have already developed and stabilized exe
In that case, use the follwoing code to call that in Process and execute.
You can trip off the first 2 lines for getting the assemblypath though.
//Code starts here:
string assemblyPath = Context.Parameters[“assemblypath”];
string InstallDir = assemblypath.Substring(0,assemblypath.LastIndexOf(“\”));
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo procStartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
//procStartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(Path.Combine(CmdCreateLocation, “Test.cmd”));
procStartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(InstallDir + “//Install.cmd”);
procStartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
procStartInfo.WorkingDirectory = InstallDir;
procStartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
procStartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
procStartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
procStartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;
procStartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true;
//procStartInfo.Domain = domain;
//procStartInfo.UserName = userName;
//procStartInfo.Password = password;
//Common.Log(“About to Fire the command file action”);
proc = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(procStartInfo);
proc.WaitForExit();
errorCode = proc.ExitCode;
if (errorCode == 0)
{
processoutput = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
//Common.Log(“Executed Successully.”);
}
else
{
processoutput = proc.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
//Common.Log(“Executed With Error.”);
//return false;
}
Thanks
