) As Integer

int StartServer(
    string bstrEnvironment,

function StartServer(
    bstrEnvironment : String, 
    pdwProcessId : uint
) : int

Parameters

bstrEnvironment
Type: System.String
Environment in which to start the server. If not specified, the default environment is used.

pdwProcessId
Type: System.UInt32%
The ID of the new process.

    [in, ptr] BSTR bstrEnvironment, 
    [out, retval] DWORD * pdwProcessId
);
