I'm now starting to develop little programs using VB.net.

I started with an App Windows Form. I would like to know some information about my microcontroller (such as MAC ADDRESS etc.). To know this information, I have to access its registers using Segger J-Link and to use a software called J-Link commander. To read registers I have to open jlinkCommander.exe and specify some parameters (device, target, speed in kHz, etc.) writing some command lines.

enter image description here

How can I open JlinkCommander.exe and put all these parameters just pushing a button in Windows form?

  • Do you mean to run an application with parameters? – Karuntos Aug 08 '17 at 14:03

    A good place to start would be the [product manual](https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink/UM08001). – djv Aug 08 '17 at 14:07

    Page 130: *The J-LinkARM.dll is a standard Windows DLL typically used from C or C++, but also Visual Basic or Delphi projects. It makes the entire functionality of the J-Link / J-Trace available through the exported functions. The functionality includes things such as halting/stepping the ARM core, reading/writing CPU and ICE registers and reading/writing memory. Therefore, it can be used in any kind of application accessing a CPU core.* – djv Aug 08 '17 at 14:08

  • Using [Process.StartInfo](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b5zzxthe(v=vs.110).aspx) to make more arguments, and then you can run it using `Process.Start(ProcessStartInfo)` – Karuntos Aug 08 '17 at 14:13

    @djv 's suggestion is probably the best way to go, plugging in directly to your application is safer and easier to debug than trying to process.start and pass over commands. – Sasha Aug 08 '17 at 16:12
