Winforms: Application.Exit vs Environment.Exit vs Form.Close

Question

Following are the ways by which we can exit an application:

1. Environment.Exit(0)
2. Application.Exit()
3. Form.Close

Answer 1

they are all fine. but form.Close() won't close your application it closes the form and after that the main-method returns an int (exitcode).

if you want that your application exits with exitcodes use Environmet.Exit(exitcode) or return the exitcode in the main-method
