You could probably help us by clarifying the question... it isn't 100% clear what the args look like or what you want to doMarc Gravell– Marc Gravell2009-06-16 08:07:04 +00:00Commented Jun 16, 2009 at 8:07

It isn't entirely clear to me, but I'm going to assume that the arguments are actually:
ApplicationId=1 Name=2
the spacing etc is important due to how the system splits arguments. In a Main(string[] args) method, that will be an array length 2. You can process this, for example into a dictionary:
static void Main(string[] args) {
Dictionary<string, string> options = new Dictionary<string, string>();
foreach (string arg in args)
{
string[] pieces = arg.Split('=');
options[pieces[0]] = pieces.Length > 1 ? pieces[1] : "";
}
Console.WriteLine(options["Name"]); // access by key
// get just the values
string[] vals = new string[options.Count];
options.Values.CopyTo(vals, 0);
}

Yep, that's pretty much what I do for utilities that require named arguments.
There's some good libraries mentioned on 631410 and 491595. I've personally used the WPF TestAPI Library mentioned by sixlettervariables and it is indeed pretty darn good

Try
string values = "ApplicationId =1; Name =2";
string[] pairs = values.Split(';');
string value1 = pairs[0].Split('=')[1];
string value2 = pairs[1].Split('=')[1];
You'll need better error checking of course, but value1 and value2 should be "1" and "2" respectively
