Use Code Compare from a .Net application

I am in the process of migrating an old application from VB 6.0 to .Net.
A.o., This application compare source code using an external text compare tool.

In the .Net version of my application I would like to use Code Compare.

I could execute Code Compare starting a new process with the ad-hoc parameters. But couldn't I instead call directly a method of a Code Compare's assembly ?

If I can't use any method (or control) from an assembly, is there any other value for the parameter /environment that would open the window without any menu. Only with the files side-by-side ?

Maybe, we will provide an interface for using Code Compare in .NET applications in one of the next versions, but it will occur not earlier than in 2 months.
