i have an dos exe which take argument, perform its functions and display the output in dos.i need to call the dos file from vb passing the argument without showing the dos window, and get the return values directed to vb textbox.
View 1 Repliessend 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 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

Is it possible to redirect the output of any console application?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to redirect output from a console application and I am only recieving partial data.
Here is an example of the output that I am recieving:
[Code]...
I made a Visual Basic program that adds an interface to some Windows network diagnostic tools like Ping and Telnet. Currently the program opens a new DOS window and displays the results. For each system you test or each time you hit the button it opens a new window.
What I want it to do is redirect the output back to the program and display it using a List box or whichever is the best choice for displaying results. I have checked out posts that talk about capturing the text and redirecting it back to the program but I can never get those to work.
Is there an easy answer for this or does it entail a lot of additional coding? I am using Visual Studio 2008.
I'd like to have a macro in Visual Studio 2005 that calls a DOS command and redirects the output (stdout and stderr) to a file. Just calling the command and ">" redirecting it will not capture stderr, so there are two parts to this:
calling a DOS command capturing both stderr and stdout to a file during that call
I'd then like to open this file in Visual Studio after the command completes.
I want to launch a file from a VB program and capture the output of that file in a text document.Here's an example:Process.Start("systeminfo.exe > Data.dat")This doesn't work. I get an error that the file cannot be found. I've tried using Shell instead of Process.Start. I've also tried replacing systeminfo.exe with a variable and replacing the redirect portion with a variable.The ultimate goal is to get the text file e-mailed. So, if it were possible to output to the Clipboard, then paste that to a file or directly into an e-mail client that would also work.

i have a form app that needs to get the output of a console app in real time.or as close to it as possible.[code]that is my code so far, and it seems to work great for everything other than the actual console app i need it to.when i use it on ping commands it comes up in my text box perfectly.when i use it with my console app (which i don't have access to the source for) it outputs nothing until the app closes, sometimes.it depends on the arguments given. i am 100% sure it is the way the app is written but there is nothing i can do about it.so is there any way to get the desired functionality some other way?
View 3 RepliesBased on the title I'm sure you all understand what I want... So, I need to work with CMD through my app. and I searched google and vbforums and I found some solutions but none of them helped me because all I found was either older version like VB.net 2005 like this topic HERE (and this is exactly what I want) and found some in other languages like c# or c++ that I really don't now them..
View 3 RepliesI'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 soon as I try to redirect my output the app bombs on the Process.Start call, complaining that a file could not be found.
I've tried several iterations on what I've seen done elsewhere, including several posts here, but I have yet to get this to work properly.
This works:

In my case, I'd like to output to a ListView or TextBox or for that matter, any control which can accept text. For this purpose, I'd like to have a general purpose Trace/Debug listener which I can hook to in order to process the messages (convert to a ListViewItem or something) before outputting it. Is there any way I can achieve this or do I have to build my own Trace Listener? If it's worth noting, I run VS2010 ultimate & VS2008 professional. Solution should be in preferably be in VB.NET but C# is okay.

Just moved a .NET 2.0 App from VS2005 to VS2010 and noticed that now when a window containing a WebBrowser tries to retrieve a pdf it thows out an error (unknown file type System.Byte[]). This would usually indicate that Acrobat Reader has not been installed - but open up IE9 and enter the link into the address bar and the PDF displays in the browser without any incident!
Should point out that the app created in VS2005 and installed on Win 7 (actually Server 2008 R2 in 'Workstation Mode') has the same issue.. All works fine in XP and below... Do seem to remember this on a Vista box, but put that down to Acrobat not being installed!

Here's an image of what it does (I suppose you can see what went wrong)13 inputs, 3 outputs expected, only 1 output given.As from what I've figured out so far, it's doing the correct amount of loops etc. It's just as soon as it starts generating the "winner" for the 2nd game key it doesn't get a string value from namesarray.Also, why is
For x = 0 To totalnames - 1
Debug.Print("namesarray(" & x & ") = " & namesarray(x))

The Response.Redirect is all the way at the bottom of the page after 3 other inserts into 3 different tables.

Explaining what is Redirect Permanent in ASP.Net 4.0?
View 1 RepliesI have a GUI that contains several components (combo boxes, textboxes, etc) with their associated labels. When a button is pressed, the selection in each input component is validated, and if found to contain an invalid value, the label color changes to red and an error message appears. This works fine on its own.The problem arises when invalid values are provided and then later fixed. When the user presses the button and the inputs are valid, I redirect the response to an asp using Response.Redirect, which then runs and opens a PDF report. When this happens, none of the code to change the labels back to their original color or to remove the error message runs. If I change Response.Redirect() to Server.Transfer() and the user goes back, it returns the page to its original state (removing the error messages), but I want to keep the valid data in each component.
What can I do to either remove the error messages when the user goes back or to retain the valid input from the user?Most of the controls are non-standard .NET controls and I'm working with VB.NET 2003.
