[Mono-list] Re quest object

[Ben Joldersma]

Allen,

What I typically do in situations like this is create a separate class that
handles my application logic, and then create two wrapper programs that
consume the class:

public class MyApp {
    public void Execute( params string[] args )
    {
        foreach( string arg in args )
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine( arg );
        }
    }
}

//compile this into an assembly and reference it in two projects, one
ASP.NET project and one command line project:

//ASP.NET project, find your Page_Load method:

void Page_Load()
{
    MyApp myApp = new MyApp();
     myApp.Execute( Request.QueryString["arg1"], Request.QueryString["arg2"]
);
}

//CLI project:

public class CLIClient
{
    public static void Main( string[] args )
    {
        MyApp myApp = new MyApp();
        myApp.Execute( args );
    }
}

there's also some neat command line argument parsing libraries out there,
that can help you along this path a bit as well.

good luck!
