Problem executing Comman-line command - Need to press Ctrl+C to stop it !
-
Hello, I want to execute a command line command from my C#. I have written code that works but am not as expected. The code is taken from "How to Execute a Command in C# ?" found on this site. and is : <code> public static int ExecuteCommand(string Command, int Timeout) { int ExitCode = -1; ProcessStartInfo ProcessInfo; Process Process; try { ProcessInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe", "/C " + Command); ProcessInfo.UseShellExecute = false; ProcessInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; //ProcessInfo.CreateNoWindow = false; //ProcessInfo.UseShellExecute = false; Process = Process.Start(ProcessInfo); // Get the results string result = Process.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd(); Console.WriteLine("Process Result = " + result); Process.WaitForExit(); ExitCode = Process.ExitCode; Console.WriteLine("%%%%%%%%%%% EXIT CODE = " + ExitCode); Process.Close(); } catch (Exception e) { Console.WriteLine("Error Processing ExecuteCommand : " + e.Message); } finally { //Process = null; //ProcessInfo = null; } return ExitCode; } </code> The code runs, but untill I don't press "Ctrl+C" on dos prompt I don't see any results. I also want to check a line form the console text. For eg: If I find "Connected" from the output I want to close the process and return. Then when the user asks for disconnecting want to execute another command to disconnect the running application. Why does the above code doesn't retun untill I press "Ctrl+c" on the command window (I don't want to show the command window also, right now am just showing)? Whne I press Ctrl+C I see the text on Console (output window), but want to check the text and on findling "Connected" want ot return and/or close the process. Can anyone point out where am I going wrong and how to solve the problem and work out with it. Any help is highly appreciated. Need to solve this early have already
