I want to integrate an “.exe” program in my application but I don’t know how to do that!

Question

Hi All

The .exe program is a decryption program that needs a password to decrypt files.

Also if it’s possible that I send directly the output (decrypted file) into my application not into a file.

Regard.

One approach you could look at is to use the System.Diagnostics.Process class to call the .exe and redirect the output so that it is captured by your C# program. Here's some basic code to do this: Process proc = new Process(); proc.StartInfo.FileName = whatever.exe; proc.StartInfo.Arguments = password; proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; proc.Start(); List lines = new List (); string line; // read and store lines from redirected standard output while ((line = proc.StandardOutput.ReadLine()) != null) { lines.Add(line); } proc.WaitForExit(); // process output
