Class ShellExecutor
Inheritance
Namespace: DynamicTesseract
Assembly: IronOcr.dll
Syntax
public static class ShellExecutor : ObjectShellExecutor is the internal helper IronOCR uses to run an external process while setting up or driving its native Tesseract tooling. It wraps the work of launching a command-line program and waiting for it to finish, so the surrounding loader code does not repeat process-handling boilerplate.
The type exposes one static method, ExecuteCommand, which takes the program to run as fileName, the command-line arguments to pass it, and an optional expected exitCode that defaults to 0. The call runs the process to completion and treats a return code other than the expected value as a failure, surfacing it to the caller. Because the class is static, there is nothing to instantiate. This is plumbing for the engine's native setup rather than a recognition API, so most projects never call it directly and instead work through IronOCR's higher-level reading methods. The IronTesseract how-to walks through configuring and running the engine.
