[C#] Open With - Target file... >_<

[DrEvil]

I have created an 'editor' in C# and it has functions as 'new map' 'save map' 'load map'
They all work... but you know when you right click any file and press 'open with' and it opens that program and the file you selected.

I was wondering how I would go about doing this in C#
to further explain:

file: map1.mfi
right click-> open with-> game editor

the game editor loads and knows that I have opened 'map1.mfi' and instantly loads that file...

Did a bit of research but couldn't find any solutions...

all help would be appreciated <3

I don't know what to add into the "open with" menu, but I know how to make it so on double click, it opens correctly.

that's kinda what I meant if I go to the properties then change the default program to my editor

like i change the default program to the editor..
double click the file, but only the editor loads not the actually map...

is there some kind of form event when opened by a file or .... hmmm


form1.openedByFile... I dunno just guessing xD


not a big deal... but I mean I just would like it to open the file aswell xD

'but I know how to make it so on double click, it opens correctly.'
could you explain that then please

I'm pretty sure there's an Application.CommandLine or something that you should process on startup, whether it contains a file path etc.

yeah thanks Vestras

Environment.CommandLine

but I gotta chop of the first string as that is what is getting launched, then the next where the opened file was :
"C://...//editor.exe" "C://...//mapfile"


Oh how I love a helpful community <3

I wanted to show you how to put your program as default program for a file, program way, on installation.
