in C#, how to implement Function like "ShellExecute(string fileName"?

[MattXu]

hello:

in script, I have code like this:

#include <Constants.au3>

#include <Date.au3>

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

 

ShellExecute("C:BlueHills.jpg")

 

by running this script, windows will use a default application to open this picture, but how to do it in C#? All I can find is AutoItX.Run(....);

 

using AutoIt;
using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            AutoItX.Run("ss.png", @"C:\Users\XuChun\Pictures");            
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

AutoItX.Run() can only execute an .exe application, it can't find a default application to open my picture

I didn't find ShellExecute() in AutoIt .Net lib, or did I miss something?

 

What can I do?

thanks

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("path\to\file.ext");

Possibly.

If you want to use ShellExecute, you must actually create a Process object and set the properties to make it use ShellExecute instead of the standard process creation.
