Hello, I'm working on a C++ project that I don't intend to develop or deploy using .NET libraries or tools, which means it would make sense for me to create it using a Visual Studio Win32 Console application. However, I've heard that the debugging abilities when using a CLR application under Visual Studio are much more powerful. So I ...
I have a console application (written in VB6 ) which is behaving strangely on my machine. I kick it off from the command line and what should be a two minute job drops straight back to the prompt - if I run this on another machine the executable will sit and wait until the job finishes before returning control back to the prompt. If I ch...
Context: .Net 3.5, C# I'd like to have caching mechanism in my Console application. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, I'd like to use System.Web.Caching.Cache (and that's a final decision, I can't use other caching framework, don't ask why). However, it looks like System.Web.Caching.Cache is supposed to run only in a valid HTTP context....

My application periodically starts console programs with process.start. I need to monitor the output of the programs in "realtime". For example, the program writes the following text to the console: Processing................. Every second or so a new dot appears to let the user know the program is still processing. However,... until ...
Was creating a simple console application to do some prototyping and was shocked to see that the right-click/context menu is missing from a standard .NET console app! I'm unable to find any information about this, and intellisense isn't helping. So what happened to it? Can I get it back? And if not, how can I configure my console app...
I'm trying to write a Delphi console application that creates a TStream for its standard input, and another TStream for its standard output. (It will be launched by a host app with its input and output redirected to pipes, and will be passing binary data to/from that host app, so TStream will be much better-suited to the task than ReadL...

Hi folks, i've got a pretty simple .NET console application. I wish to pass in some command line arguments ... nothing tough there. Now, the kicker is, i usually have a LIST of items i wish to pass in, for one argument. In this case, a list of files. I'm not sure of the best way to do this. eg. myapp.exe files=aaa.txt,bbb.txt,ccc.txt ...
Using .NET is there a method, such as an event, of detecting when a Console Application is exiting, I need to clean up some threads and COM objects?

Each mile travelled by the automobile increments the mileage counter. Here is how the above mileage counter changes over a 3 mile drive. After the ...
Actually the question should be why does Console.WriteLine exist just to be a wrapper for Console.Out.WriteLine I found this little method using intellisense, then opened .NET reflector and 'decompiled' the code for the Console.WriteLine method and found this: public static void WriteLine(string value) { Out.WriteLine(value); } S...
Most programming books will tell you to use Console.ReadKey() to pause the console, but is there a better alternative? Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue."); Console.ReadKey(); ...

How can a Windows console application written in C# determine whether it is invoked in a non-interactive environment (e.g. from a service or as a scheduled task) or from an environment capable of user-interaction (e.g. Command Prompt or PowerShell)? ...
I'm writing a quick server app for something so don't really want to write a full GUI. However the problem is that the main part of the server, however the console window will only allow input or output at a time.

In my web application I am using FormsAuthentication like so: string hashedPwd = FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile(saltAndPassword, "SHA1"); I...
I'd like to put my cmd.com window into a mode where Control-C does not generate a SIGINT signal to Python (ActiveState if it matters). I know I can use the signal module to handle SIGINT. The problem is that handling SIGINT is too late; by the time it is handled, it has already interrupted a system call. I'd like something equivalent t...
