Public Methods

Method	Description
AreHardlinked ( [ path1, [ path2 ) : bool	Determines whether to files are hardlinked.
AttachConsole ( ) : bool	Tries to attach to a command-line console owned by the parent process.
BroadcastMessage ( int messageID ) : void	Sends a message of a specific type to all windows in the current session.
CreateHardlink ( [ sourcePath, [ targetPath ) : void	Creates a hard link between two files. Only available on Windows 2000 or newer.
CreateSymlink ( [ sourcePath, [ targetPath ) : void	Creates a symbolic link for a file or directory.
MoveFileOnReboot ( [ sourcePath, [ destinationPath ) : void	Moves a file on the next reboot of the OS. Replaces existing files. Useful for replacing in-use files.
RegisterApplicationRestart ( [ arguments ) : void	Registers the current application for automatic restart after updates or crashes.
RegisterWindowMessage ( [ message ) : int	Registers a new message type that can be sent to windows.
SetCurrentProcessAppID ( string appID ) : void	Sets the current process' explicit application user model ID. The application ID is used to group related windows in the taskbar.
UnregisterApplicationRestart ( ) : void	Unregisters the current application for automatic restart after updates or crashes.
WriteAllBytes ( [ path, [ data ) : void	Writes the entire contents of a byte array to a file using the Win32 API. Existing files with the same name are overwritten. This method works like File.WriteAllBytes, but bypasses .NET's file path validation logic.

Method Details

AreHardlinked() public static method

Determines whether to files are hardlinked.

There was an IO problem checking the files. You have insufficient rights to check the files. Checking the files failed. This method is called on a platform other than Windows NT.

public static AreHardlinked ( [ path1, [ path2 ) : bool
path1	[	The path of the first file.
path2	[	The path of the second file.
return	bool

AttachConsole() public static method

Tries to attach to a command-line console owned by the parent process.

public static AttachConsole ( ) : bool
return	bool

BroadcastMessage() public static method

Sends a message of a specific type to all windows in the current session.

public static BroadcastMessage ( int messageID ) : void
messageID	int	A unique ID number used to identify the message type session-wide.
return	void

CreateHardlink() public static method

Creates a hard link between two files.

Only available on Windows 2000 or newer.

There was an IO problem creating the hard link. You have insufficient rights to create the hard link. The hard link creation failed. This method is called on a platform other than Windows NT.

public static CreateHardlink ( [ sourcePath, [ targetPath ) : void
sourcePath	[	The path of the link to create.
targetPath	[	The absolute path of the existing file to point to.
return	void

CreateSymlink() public static method

Creates a symbolic link for a file or directory.

There was an IO problem creating the symlink. You have insufficient rights to create the symbolic link. The symbolic link creation failed. This method is called on a platform other than Windows NT 6.0 (Vista) or newer.

public static CreateSymlink ( [ sourcePath, [ targetPath ) : void
sourcePath	[	The path of the link to create.
targetPath	[	The path of the existing file or directory to point to (relative to ).
return	void

MoveFileOnReboot() public static method

Moves a file on the next reboot of the OS. Replaces existing files.

Useful for replacing in-use files.

public static MoveFileOnReboot ( [ sourcePath, [ destinationPath ) : void
sourcePath	[	The source path to move the file from.
destinationPath	[	The destination path to move the file to. null to delete the file instead of moving it.
return	void

RegisterApplicationRestart() public static method

Registers the current application for automatic restart after updates or crashes.

is too long.

public static RegisterApplicationRestart ( [ arguments ) : void
arguments	[	The command-line arguments to pass to the application on restart. Must not be empty!
return	void

RegisterWindowMessage() public static method

Registers a new message type that can be sent to windows.

public static RegisterWindowMessage ( [ message ) : int
message	[	A unique string used to identify the message type session-wide.
return	int

SetCurrentProcessAppID() public static method

Sets the current process' explicit application user model ID.

The application ID is used to group related windows in the taskbar.

appID	string	The application ID to set.
return	void

UnregisterApplicationRestart() public static method

Unregisters the current application for automatic restart after updates or crashes.

public static UnregisterApplicationRestart ( ) : void
return	void

WriteAllBytes() public static method

Writes the entire contents of a byte array to a file using the Win32 API. Existing files with the same name are overwritten.

This method works like File.WriteAllBytes, but bypasses .NET's file path validation logic.
