I'm getting the error: "Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Process' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Diagnostics' (are you missing an assembly reference?) C:\Documents and Settings\<name>\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\coLinuxLauncher\coLinuxLauncher\coLinuxLauncher.cs 11 32 coLinuxLauncher"

Yet I'm pretty sure I didn't make a mistake... i have the .NET Framework 2.0 and the SDK for the same.. any ideas?

 C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
 
namespace coLinuxLauncherYo
{
 
    class coLinuxLauncher
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            Process colinux = new Process();
 
            colinux.StartInfo.Filename = "colinux-daemon.exe";
            colinux.StartInfo.Arguments = @"@xubuntu\xubuntu-8.04.txt";
            colinux.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\coLinux";
 
            colinux.Start();
        }
    }
}
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;

namespace coLinuxLauncherYo
{

    class coLinuxLauncher
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            Process colinux = new Process();

            colinux.StartInfo.Filename = "colinux-daemon.exe";
            colinux.StartInfo.Arguments = @"@xubuntu\xubuntu-8.04.txt";
            colinux.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\coLinux";

            colinux.Start();
        }
    }
}

EDIT: I know that the Process class does in fact exist in System.Diagnostics because it's in the MSDN here

You may need to manually add the reference to the project...also file path's in c# need two backslashes instead of one (for your working directory and arguments.)

ah yes now it works... ty... I have never had to manually add the reference to my project before but now I know for in the future..

and I put the '@' in front of my strings so i didn't have to do the double backslash

Thanks for the help!
