Invoke UI application in a thread

Question

I've 2 exe (A, B) and one dll (C).

A is an exe that user invokes from commandline with argument -ui or -file_path.

if -ui is passed: B is used to show UI. if -file_path is passed, C is used for further functionality.

if -ui is passed, i use following code (in Main method):

 System.Threading.Thread a = new System.Threading.Thread(yah); a.Start(); static void yah() { SyngoViaInstallerUI.Program.Main(); }

but it blocks the command line from where exe A was invoked. is it possible to unblock the cmdLine or i should to create a new process for -ui argument?

Thanks.

you have to create seperate process for B in order to release the process A and finish gracefully.

Following code works, but is this correct way?

System.Diagnostics.Process pr = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo psi = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(); psi.FileName = @"file_path"; pr.StartInfo = psi; pr.Start();

Thanks.
