Im trying to launch a dialog by invoking several methods from a windows forms assembly. My app is a console app. All the execution logic goes well and without exceptions, but the window is not launched. Is it a known issue that you cant launch a windows form from a console app?
well, yes. You have to have a Windows message loop for this to work.
If you create a Forms application from scratch, you’ll see the Program.cs module created with
... Application.Run(new YourMainForm())in it. Run is basically the message pump – having that is pretty much a requirement for forms to work.
