Process.Start(...) and Execution Environment,...

[Kerem Gümrükcü]

Hi,

i wonder that the Process.Start(. ..) needs full path to the
executable to start it, even the executable is listed in the
PATH Variable and can be launched from any console
on my system. Is it possible to do the same from Process.Start(. ..)?
How can i set the Process Executon Environment for the
Process, so that the call to Start(...) will resolve the path to the
Exe from the PATH Env. and run it. Is this possible...? Maybe
i miss something here,...


Regards

Kerem

You could use the following functions. Never tried it myself.

ProcessStartInf o p = new ProcessStartInf o();
Environment.Get EnvironmentVari ables()
p.StartInfo.Env ironmentVariabl es.Add()

Just make sure the path your file is included in the Windows' path.

To set the Windows' path, go into My Computer Properties.

I don't have a convenient way to test this myself right now, but you could
try just setting ProcessStartInf o.UseShellExecu te to "false".

That property indicates to the Process class whether it should go through
the Windows shell logic, or just treat the process as a normal
executable. While the main difference is whether you can use the Process
class to open documents or not, I think it's possible (likely even) that
if you set the property to false, the normal path search would happen for
starting an executable.

Thanks to all repliers. It was a more detailed Problem
with Impersonation and Pinvoke. It has been solved.

Thanks to all replies,...
