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 ...
I have an app which calls another process in a command window and that process has updating stats that output to the console window. I thought this was a fairly simple operation but I can't seem to get it to work. Am I missing something? string assemblyLocation = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location; System.Diagnostics.Process proce...
I've been working on automating our build processes and wanted to come up with a painless way to run unit tests on a regular basis. To that end I've thrown together a simple app that examines the project files and prepares a list of solutions to test. The prototype works in that the tests are executed with the expected results, but as ...
I have a form with 3 controls: A textbox for the user to enter commands to send to a console application, A button to confirm the commands to be sent and A read-only textbox to display the output from the application. What I want is for the user to enter commands in the first textbox, press the button to enter and receive feedback vi...
Ok here's a simple Console Application I made to test the RedirectStandardOutput of the Process.StartInfo. foreach (c In [Enum].GetValues(GetType(ConsoleColor)) { Console.ForegroundColor = c Console.WriteLine("Test") } And below is the application result. So as we can see the colors show beautifully on t...
I want to capture output sent to standard out and standard error within an MSTest unit test so that I can verify it. I've captured output before when explicitly running a Process, but is there a way to do with [I guess] the MSTest process itself? For example: [TestMethod] public void OutputTest() { MySnazzyMethod("input", 1, 'c');...
Hi everyone. I have a program that launches command line processes in async mode, using BeginOutputReadLine. My problem is that the .Exited event is triggered when there is still some .OutputDataReceived events being triggered. What I do in my .Exited event must happen only once all my .OutputDataReceived events are done, or I'll be mis...
Hi, MSDN states that it is possible in .NET to capture the output of a process and display it in the console window at the same time. Normally when you set StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; the console window stays blank. As the MSDN site doesn't provide a sample for this I was wondering if anyone would have a sample or could po...
Hi all, I'm working with a BackgroundWorker Process from Windows .NET C# application. From the async method I call many instance of cmd.exe Process (foreach), and read from StandardOutput, but at the 3-times cycle the ReadToEnd() method throw Timeout Exception. Here the code: StreamWriter sw = null; DataTable dt2 = null; StringBu...
//by this code i want the batch file which is going to be executed will show the output on shell screen which i got by RedirectStandardOutput = false; but i also want at that same time output should be redirected to a log file for this i have to do this as RedirectStandardOutput = true; but once one can be used either true or false pl...
I have a shell program that sends output to standard out and standard error. I am trying to write a program in VB.net which inspects the output in real time and presents summarized information in a GUI. I also want the shell program to continue to display its output in a command prompt as usual. I don't want to just shove the output in a...
In my C# code, I have to run some external processes. These could be batch files or executables. I redirect the output to a window of my own by having RedirectStandardOutput of the ProcessStartInfo be true. This allows the user to review the output even after the external process has finished. I also redirect the input so the user can pr...
