Run Command Prompt Commands
.net, c#, command, command-line, prompt
Solution
this is all you have to do run shell commands from C#
string strCmdText;
strCmdText= "/C copy /b Image1.jpg + Archive.rar Image2.jpg";
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("CMD.exe",strCmdText);
EDIT:
This is to hide the cmd window.
System.Diagnostics.Process process = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
startInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";
startInfo.Arguments = "/C copy /b Image1.jpg + Archive.rar Image2.jpg";
process.StartInfo = startInfo;
process.Start();
EDIT 2:
It is important that the argument begins with `/C`, otherwise it won't work. As @scott-ferguson said: /C carries out the command specified by the string and then terminates.
Problem
Is there any way to run command prompt commands from within a C# application? If so how would I do the following: ``` copy /b Image1.jpg + Archive.rar Image2.jpg ``` This basically embeds an RAR file within JPG image. I was just wondering if there was a way to do this automatically in C#.
