Executing batch files in C#.
-
I won't go into details, but I would like to start a command line program from a c# form app. What I have been doing is write the file with c# code and execute it. I have been successful in changing the directory (cd ....) in the batch file. What i need now is to have another command called ("make"). I would like to know how to do this with either a batch file line or with something from a FCL class. To better illustrate my problem, here is an example of my programs batch output.
set path=%path%;C:/pspdev/bin // these lines are static, they don't change
set PSPSDK=C:/pspdev/psp/sdk
cmd /k cd C:\pspdev\Projects\HomebewApp // this one changes directory on cmd startup, i tried to repeat the line with the "make" command but it didn't work. -

You should check the environment variables and make sure you need to do that before doing it. As far as the "cmd" line, you can set the working directory for an app by using the
