System.Diagnostics.Process - Dispose? : DOTNET
This is a discussion on System.Diagnostics.Process - Dispose? within the DOTNET forums in Framework and Interface Programming category; Hi: Can anyone clarify whether I should be using Dispose() on a System.Diagnostics.Process object after I have launched an external application with Start()? The application I have launched is *not* a modal application and should continue to execute even if the lanuching application is closed. I suppose what I am asking is: If I call Dispose() on the process that has launched an external program with Start(), will the application be forced to close? TIA, Martin....

| Re: System.Diagnostics.Process - Dispose? I don't believe so. You can use .NET Reflector to see Dispose actually does, and all it seems to do is close handles. -- Phil Wilson [MVP Windows Installer] "Martin Hart" <"martin dot hartturner at gmail dot com"> wrote in message news:edUH%23FZNIHA.6108@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Hi: > > Can anyone clarify whether I should be using Dispose() on a > System.Diagnostics.Process object after I have launched an external > application with Start()? > > The application I have launched is *not* a modal application and should > continue to execute even if the lanuching application is closed. > > I suppose what I am asking is: If I call Dispose() on the process that has > launched an external program with Start(), will the application be forced > to close? > > TIA, > Martin. |
