    How can I run this line from within a C# console app?

    I have the following line that I wish to execute from within a C# Console
    Application.

    svcutil.exe http://localhost/COWFeedyardService/Services/Animal.svc
    /out:Animal.vb /config:App.conf ig

    Manually, I can open the Windows SDK Command Prompt and type exactly the
    above and it works. But how can I make it work from within a console app?

    Thanks for any help,
    Ron

      Try code like:

      Process proc = new Process();

      proc.StartInfo. FileName = @"svcutil.ex e";
      proc.StartInfo. Arguments = @"http://localhost/COWFeedyardServ ice/
      Services/Animal.svc/out:Animal.vb /config:App.conf ig";
      proc.Start();

          That won't work as it is more than likely that the directory where
          svcutil is not in the PATH environment variable.

          Instead, the OP needs to specify the full path to svcutil.exe in the
          arguments to the Process class. That's really the only thing that is
          missing (which was pointed out in another thread to the OP as well, by
          myself, and others).

              Thanks Nicholas. I was just having some trouble with the syntax after all.
