C# command line app, invisible to windows installer
Hi Experts,
I need to create a C# command line app that won't show a window popup when called from a windows installer. Is my best bet a "console application" or an "empty project"? I need the return code of the main to indicate the success or failure of the command line.
Thanks,
Mike

Side question, sorry - do you know if it's possible to create a c# forms application that would not have any UI that could also redirect its output? Or would "console" not even be available in this type of project? I ask this because the command line is part of an installer and I don't want to see the black window come up while it does its thing...
Thanks,
Mike

Set this property to Hidden(not visible) when you run console app.
