How can I get args of Form program?

Question

How can I get args of Form program? In console application I can use args[] but what about Form Application?

Answer 1

One simple way:

string[] args = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();

Alternatively you could change the Main-call to include parameters (in Program.cs):

static void Main(string[] args)
{

You will then need to pass it into your Form, and change your form's constructor accordingly (assuming that's where you need the args ):

public Form1(string[] args)
{

Answer 2

When you create a WinForm application in C# the editor creates a Program.cs file for you. That is where main is located and that is where the arguments are available.

It's a bit of IDE "magic" for lack of a better term. There is still a 'main' function, it just launches an instance of your main form does and anything else that is required for you. Open that file up and take a look.

Answer 3

You need to change the form constructor to accept an args parameter.

eg:

public void Form1(string[] args)
{

}
