[RESOLVED] Openargs

[jimjamjo]

Hi

I'm pretty new to .net from vb.

Can you pass input parameters to a compiled.net exe file - a bit like openargs in vb e.g. dotnetproj.exe 1000

or do you have to have an exe for each of the different input parameters that you need e.g.
dotnetproj1000.exe,
dotnetproj2000.exe,
dotnetproj3000.exe
etc

cheers

You can pass them in the commandline arguments and receive them in your app by checking in the Form_Load event or New
procedure by using Environment.CommandLine()

Thanks

and then you remove the path from the string within the project?

[RobDog888]

It would be passed in something that is easily parsable.

run proj1.exe /1 /debug /false
 
sub form_load
    dim ar() as string
    ar = Environment.CommandLine.Split("/")
    messagebox.show(ar(0))
    messagebox.show(ar(1))
    messagebox.show(ar(2))
end sub
