Exec imagemagick convert via c #
When I open a command window in windows and use the imagemagick convert command:
convert / somedir / Garden.jpg / somedir / Garden.png
Works as expected.
What I am trying to do is execute the same command as above using C #.
I tried using System.Diagnostics.Process, however foo.png is not generated.
I am using this code:
var proc = new Process
{
StartInfo =
{
Arguments = string.Format("{0}Garden.jpg {1}Garden.png",
TEST_FILE_DIR,
TEST_FILE_DIR),
FileName = @"C:\xampp\ImageMagick-6.5.4-Q16\convert",
UseShellExecute = false,
CreateNoWindow = true,
RedirectStandardOutput = false,
RedirectStandardError = false
}
};
proc.Start();
No exception is thrown, but a .png is written as well.

I assume it TEST_FILE_DIR
contains a space, so you should quote it.
Try the following:
Arguments = string.Format("\"{0}Garden.jpg\" \"{1}Garden.png\"",
TEST_FILE_DIR,
TEST_FILE_DIR)
You can also specify the filename including the extension, for example
FileName = @"C:\xampp\ImageMagick-6.5.4-Q16\convert.exe"
