Hello,

Have you got any example passing parameters to a managed app from the command line?

I have tried with "linkage section" but it seems only works with native applications.

Thanks.

    Do not worry. I found it.

           class-id MNGMenuWin.Menu.
           
           method-id Main static
               attribute System.STAThread.
           local-storage section.
           01 mainForm type MNGMenuWin.Form1.
           procedure division using by value cmds as string occurs any.
           
               set mainForm to new MNGMenuWin.Form1(cmds(1))
               invoke type System.Windows.Forms.Application::EnableVisualStyles()
               invoke type System.Windows.Forms.Application::Run(mainForm)
               goback.
           
           end method.
           
           end class.

    You can either use (which is portable):
      working-storage section.
      01 cmdline pic x(100).
      procedure division.
      accept cmdline from command-line

    Or use the .Net property Environment.CommandLine

    Or use: (portable between .Net & JVM)

    01 arg string.

    procedure division using by value args as string occurs any.
      perform varying arg through args
       display " -> " arg
      end-perform
