System.Diagnostic.Process

[adish11]

I'm using Web Application and want to execute an MSDOS executable with some
parameters like this example: software.exe -i -x

How do I use System.Diagnostic.Process to execute this .exe with
parameters? Could you give me the code lines with this example?

Thanks for your answer.

Hi,
I have a WEB Apllication not Windows and trying to run psexec.exe file
with arguments. The file not responding to the call from the code. Please
check it, I really don't know where is the mistake and I don't know what
to do.

The code:
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startupInfo = new
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();

startupInfo.FileName = "C:\\psexec.exe";
startupInfo.Arguments = "\\toc2";

startupInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
startupInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
startupInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;

System.Diagnostics.Process process =
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(startupInfo);

process.WaitForExit ();

Thanks
