C# how to display message box without form

http://www.flounder.com/consoledialogs.htm

Easily:

Just call:

System.Forms.MessageBox.ShowDialog("This is your text");

Sorry:

System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.ShowDialog("This is your text");

Forgot again - you also need to add a reference to your project: to System.Windows.Forms.

One more my mistake: Show, not ShowDialog. I tested the code below :)

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
                System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("Hello");
        }

Select allOpen in new window

jimbel -

When I cut and paste your example into my code I am getting this error:
"Error      1      The type or namespace name 'Windows' does not exist in the namespace 'System' (are you missing an assembly reference?)"

am I missing something in my directives? Is there something in my AssemblyInfo.cs I should be including?

If we want to pop up messagebox in console app, we should add the reference
to System.Windows.Forms.dll. You could refer to the following code and I
hope it's useful for you,

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
      class Class1
      {
                [STAThread]
               static void Main(string[] args)
               {
                     System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("Hello World");
               }
       }
}
