How to Make my application handle Errors for a few different scenarios?
- by NightsEVil
so i have this code to extract a program to the temp directory then run it, the problem is it doesn't work perfectly on every computer (for some reason it hits a error or exception sometimes)
string tempFolder = System.IO.Path.Combine(System.IO.Path.GetTempPath(), "");
System.Diagnostics.Process defrag1 = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"Programs\Optimize\AusLogics_Defrag.exe", string.Format(" -o{0} -y", tempFolder));
defrag1.WaitForExit();
string executableDirectoryName = Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath);
System.Diagnostics.Process defrag2 = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(tempFolder + "\\" + "AusLogics_Defrag" + "\\" + "DiskDefrag.exe", "");
defrag2.WaitForExit();
System.IO.Directory.Delete(tempFolder + "\\" + "AusLogics_Defrag", true);
and what i wanna know is there a way that say if it starts to extract but hits a error (no matter what it is) it will automatically change and go to this code, but if it DOESN'T hit a error it continues as it was meant to?
string tempFolder = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData);
System.Diagnostics.Process defrag1 = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"Programs\Optimize\AusLogics_Defrag.exe", string.Format(" -o{0} -y", tempFolder));
defrag1.WaitForExit();
string executableDirectoryName = Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath);
System.Diagnostics.Process defrag2 = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(tempFolder + "\\" + "AusLogics_Defrag" + "\\" + "DiskDefrag.exe", "");
defrag2.WaitForExit();
System.IO.Directory.Delete(tempFolder + "\\" + "AusLogics_Defrag", true);
with the path going to the application data folder? and if THAT hits a error it would change that path to this, but if it DOESN'T hit a error it continues as it was meant to?
string tempFolder = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("HomeDrive");
