Hi,

I have developed a console application in Visual Basic 2008. I try to pass a command line argument like this myapp /date=2008-01-01. The argument will only be passed to the application if the ClickOnce security is unchecked. This works great in debug mode, but as soon as I publish the application, the ClickOnce security is automatic re-checked, and the application refuses to read the command line argument.

Is there a way to allow the command line arguments to be passed on into the application while the clickOnce security is enabled ?

Please help

Thanks,

Two things.

1) ClickOnce is designed for Smart Client deployment, i.e. WinForms and WPF applications. So don't rely on it working for a console application.

2) The only way to do that is to make it an online-only application, and use the arguments in a query string.

Okay, I see.

Is there a way to disable the clickonce security, since I dont really need it?

There must be som way to pass arguments to a console app.

No, you can't. That's the point of ClickOnce. Use a setup & deployment package instead.
