在C＃Process.Start参数中使用单引号

Question

I'm need to execute Linux command line programs from .Net Core with arguments which include single quote '

Two examples:

dpkg-query -W -f=' ${db:Status-Status} ' mariadb*

virsh qemu-agent-command SRV01 '{"execute":"guest-ping"}' 

In C#:

Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
ProcessStartInfo pi = new ProcessStartInfo("dpkg-query");
pi.Arguments = "-W -f=' ${db:Status-Status} ' mariadb*";
proc.StartInfo = pi;
proc.Start();

One example of error message: '''''''''''''''''''dpkg-query: no packages found matching ${db:Status-Status} dpkg-query: no packages found matching '

I'm calling perhaps 30 difference programs with arguments without any problems. Only have issue with the single quote

Also tried to use the ProcessStartInfo.ArgumentList and many basic escape tricks but with not success.

Solution:

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;

namespace Exe
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

            //In the Linux shell: dpkg-query -W -f=' ${db:Status-Status} ' mariadb*:
            ProcessStartInfo pi = new ProcessStartInfo("dpkg-query");
            pi.ArgumentList.Add("-W");
            pi.ArgumentList.Add("-f= ${db:Status-Status} ");
            pi.ArgumentList.Add("mariadb*");

            pi.UseShellExecute = false;
            proc.StartInfo = pi;
            proc.Start();
            do { System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(50); } while (proc.HasExited == false);
            Environment.Exit(0);
        }
    }
}

And another command example:

....
//In the Linux shell: virsh qemu-agent-command SRV04 '{"execute":"guest-ping"}'
ProcessStartInfo pi = new ProcessStartInfo("virsh");
pi.ArgumentList.Add("qemu-agent-command");
pi.ArgumentList.Add("SRV03");
pi.ArgumentList.Add("{\"execute\":\"guest-ping\"}");
....

Solved with help from TSlivede and jnm2 on the this github.com tread :-)
