我可以在我的C＃GUI应用程序中构建控制台应用程序吗？

Question

Is it possible to include a command line utility in my C# WinForm Application? To be more specific, is it possible to compile a command line util into an .exe file so that I can write a GUI to control the command line tool?

Answer 1

If you have a dependency on another application, then packaging that utility inside your EXE is a bad idea, because that means every time that dependency is updated, you should be updating your application. I would just build your windows application and help the user find the required EXE. This is how Exact Audio Copy works which relies on another 3rd party application for encoding (specifically LAME ).
