Loading Java JAR through c#

I've made a program that will attempt to open a JAR file by clicking a button in my c# program, unfortunately it won't work.

Here's the code:

Code:

---

string stdOutput;
        int exitCode = ExecuteProcess( @"\"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin\Java.exe\""
  , " -jar myJar.jar "
  , @"\"C:\Client\Run.jar""
  , myTimeout
  , out stdOutput );

---

The above didn't work, so I tried a different method and replaced with:

Code:

---

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"c:/Client\Run.jar");

---

Yet I failed, any suggestions?

Have you tried something like this?

Code:

---

Process java = new Process();
java.StartInfo.FileName = pathToJava_exe;
java.StartInfo.Arguments = "-jar \"" + pathToJarFile + "\" " + otherArgs;
java.Start();

---

Process is part of System.Diagnostics namespace. Also I like to substitute all \ with / in any paths I give to different processes. This eases things up with escaping and whatnot.

It should be like below

Code:

---

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"c:\Client\Run.jar");

---

1) That doesn't pass the command line arguments required.
2) You're responding to an old thread.
