Open VM in c#

[pro100pdg]

Hello,
I would like to open my VM in C# program (on button click)

i had two options :

Code: Select all

            IVirtualBox virtualBox = new VirtualBox.VirtualBox();
            foreach (IMachine machine in virtualBox.Machines)
            {
               if (machine.Name == "LinuxMint")
                {
                    virtualBox.OpenMachine();
                }             
            }

and

Code: Select all

 System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("D:\\VirtualBox\\VBoxManage.exe",@"startvm LinuxMint");

So first this is that what should i put in : virtualBox.OpenMachine(?);
And the second one is that is there any way to start some proces on that VM using the 2nd solution?
For example, after starting this LinuxMint i want to open proces "vsdesign.exe" and then go >File>Modify>Open

The API call to "open" a VM, which is actually starting a VM (you are using the wrong word) is IMachine::launchVmProcess().
You have a code sample for 4.3 for it - simply update the imports to use which ever version of VirtualBox you connect to.

And the second one is that is there any way to start some proces on that VM

Yes, using a Guest Session after installing the guest additions on the VM.
Likewise, a code sample is available with the previous link
