linkLabel_LinkClicked

• Richard M Malone

  from what I can see on my computer i have Microsoft Platform SDK and it is under the directory C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\

  how would I use Process.Start and isn't it supposed to be Process::Start since it's C++ instead of C#
  
  

• Soar

  Oh, you don't have a platform SDK installed, you're using Express. Express is kind of a half a Windows C++ compiler, IMO. You can use Process.Start instead, which is the .NET way to do things. I guess you've abandoned standard C++ anyhow ( not that ShellExecute is standard C++, it's part of the Windows SDK libraries ).

  I do have a Platform SDK installed, it's just with Express.

  Did you read the link I gave you It has an example. Process::Start DOES work, the example code on the MSDN site goes over it in depth. System::Uri is unlikely to be what you want.

  
  
  

• vky

  System::Process::Start doesn't work but how about System::Uri

  can you think of anything to type after that, when I type that in I've got a ton of options (too many to list).

  
  
  

• Brad King

  The most obvious error is that you have not put the URL in quotes. I meant that my example was using a variable that contained the URL.

  Beyond that, maybe you need System::Process::Start

  
  
  

• Dude987

  If you have the PSDK installed and configured, you should have access to ShellExecute

  
  
  

• Etherline

  OK, I guess it's something that's just core, and not in the SDK, and is still removed from Express. Process.Start is probably better, as you're committing to .NET anyhow. I would just steer people away from .NET if they are using C++, so they learn stuff that can move to non-.NET projects.

  
  
  

• sujun

  Yes, it probably is Process::Start. To be honest, I use C++ and C# both every day, but I'd never consider using managed C++, so I'm pretty much answering because it's a .NET question, so I gave the C# syntax.

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemdiagnosticsprocessclassstarttopic.asp

  Process::Start(myURL);

  where myURL is just the URL as a string.

  ShellExecute is the answer.

  This is the code I put in:

  #pragma endregion

  private: System::Void linkLabel1_LinkClicked(System::Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms::LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs^ e) {

  Process::Start(www.google.com);

  }

  };

  }

  and these are the errors I got:
