I try to redirect a robocopy job to a textbox. If I write the complete output after the job finishes, all is displayed correctly.
Code:
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe"
myProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "/C " & Chr(34) & cntCommand & Chr(34) & " && exit"
myProcess.EnableRaisingEvents = True
myProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
[code]....
Private Sub StreamInput(ByVal Text As String) m_Process.StandardInput.WriteLine(Text)
m_Process.StandardInput.Flush()
End Sub
Private Function ConvertFromOem(ByVal Text As String) As String
Return _

I am running some commands on computers and I would like to have them output a seperate text file if the command cannot run.
For Each strUserName As String In strLines
Dim ReplaceCommand As String = sCommand.Replace("*", strUserName).Replace("$$$", saveFileDialog3.FileName & ".txt").Replace("###", exeSearch)
[code]....
Am I on the right track? I am getting an output to a text file but its just one line ans always says PASS.
send the text from a certain line in the hidden console window to a textbox in the form, but I need this output while the console application is still running in a hidden window. Since I am going to have multiple instances of this console application running, I have assigned their processes to an array and each have a separate "hidden" console window. After I launch these applications (with different arguments assign to them), they require no input and will run until I ".kill them" using the GUI.The console application was written in the old C and it's source code scares me.
I am creating this GUI "bolt on" application for it in VB.NET 2005 to clean up desktop space (save me from 30 console windows) and to be able to start, stop, and monitor them from a single clean GUI.Attempted solutions:I have reviewed the information [URL]But again, that just tells me how to capture the output of it after the console application has exited, which I already know how to do and I do not wish to kill the application just to see a certain line of it's output as it would obviously interrupt what it is doing.
How can I launch a console application from my windows app and get output from it in a textbox?
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble redirecting standardoutput and standarderror from a command line program that dumps a lot of numbers to the screen. I've looked through a lot of similar posts and think my code matches what it should be doing (asynchronous reading of the data with appropriate invokes for writing to the log text box) but it still just hangs the application until my p.WaitForExit times out. Once it times out and I kill the process, a chunk (but not all) of the data is written to the textbox in from the OutputDataReceived event handler. Any ideas what is going on here? I've seen some posts regarding buffer size, but that apparently is fixed (i.e. I can set a buffer size of 1 and receive every char). Below is my function to execute the process and two relevant event handlers.

myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "flac.exe"

The AppendText runs and works on an initial run of the exe, but the problem is that not all output is redirected. when using parameters I get no output from the stream, but running flac.exe at the command prompt reveals output of course. Does anyone know anything about redirects and how to make the above code redirect ALL output from the exe?
flac.exe is a lossless audio codec utility. I am making a frontend for it.

how to redirect outputs from console to a window form text box,but the console application I'm using is always running real time, thus my .net application hangs until I close the program that is read real time.The code displays the application to a 2nd form with a textbox multi line. Until I close that my entire program hangs and the console application monitored runs.
How do I code it to:
1. Run real time without hanging the entire program.
2. the console app must run at all times. (figured how to hide/ and no window created for it)
Sub Console()
Form2.Show()
Dim myCon As New Process
myCon.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False

I am trying to redirect the output of a c program which generates output in the console. I can redirect the output once the process exits. But is there the way to redirect the output as and when there is some output in the shell window? I require this to make it understandable that the program is running and since different steps of the c code may take, say 10-15 minutes to run.

I am writing a command line application in VB.NET. This application is calling another one, msxsl.exe, to run an XSL transform. I am using the Process class to do this:[code]What I want it to be able to display the output from this process to the console of my application. I have read several posts explaining this method, but it does not seem to work in this case. The output is an empty string.[code]I have verified that if I run the msxsl executable on its own (i.e. running "msxsl.exe base.xml test.xsl -o styled.xml"), it displays output on the command line. What am I doing wrong?I should note that the msxsl process is currently failing due to a malformed XML file. It is displaying this error message:[code]This is exactly the type of thing I want displayed in the console of my application (or, eventually, a log file.)
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to adapt a VBscript that runs the QWINSTA command against a text file I've defined as an array and displays the results in a text file.after looking at numerous examples on Stack and other sites this is my latest iteration, that displays everything except the STDOUT, which is really what I'm after, not sure if it's an issue with how I'm calling the command piping the output or what. I'm also passing two variables as arguments to complicate matters :)
The Text file that stdout is piped to is empty after the FOR Loop completes I may be going the long way about this, most of my past experience with this is in BATCH

how to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.

2-tommyperrry
3-marktoms
4-Jonessmith
5-paulwhite
Obviously this is 5 lines and that's what I need to count.

I've got an old dynamic link library that I'm using which was created primarily to be used in a console environment. As such it generally indicates what it's doing through Console.Write(). I've recently created a windows form which is using some of the functions from this library. I'd like to be able to grab the console output and place it in a textbox on my windows form so that the user can have some indication of the progress (right now it just says "Working").
View 3 RepliesI would like to have my output in columns, and the numbers in two digit after the decimal.
I am writing a data validation app where the app asks the user for input like give me a number of double type: and hopefully the user will comply.
But the app will test some validation rules and then:
1) if the user simply pressed enter the app will tell the user all sorts of reasons why the input was rejected. And that part should look like a table with columns for the entry, if it passed true, otherwise false and then the reason line empty input. Or this number is a string.
