Calling a console app from the command line with string[] args
15,675
Yes, the string[] args
is from the command line. The zeroth element is the first argument and so on. Please note unlike C or C++, args[0]
doesn't contain the application name.
So if you do:
application.exe arg1 arg2 arg3
Then:
args[0] = arg1
args[1] = arg2
args[2] = arg3
If you pass only one argument, that is available as args[0]
.

I have a .NET Console app (very simple). The entry point takes the infamous string[] args argument. Does this mean that from a command line, I could call this app and pass in a single string as a parameter? If so, how?
