View 1 RepliesCreating, Running, Deleting A Batch In .NET?
Dec 6, 2009i know how to shell an existing batch file with shell, however, the code inside the batch i want to change depending on a certain variable,so is there a way i can write a textfile and save it as a .bat then run it, and delete it after, so the user does not really ever see the .bat file (so it seemingly looks like the program itself is running the commands)

View 1 RepliesC# Running Batch File And Streaming Its Output?
Apr 2, 2012I have this problem in VB.NET in c#, I have this project where I need to run a batch file, which is easy enough. But my problem is I need to display everything that shows up on the batch file, in the cmd window, in a textbox, now, this code opens the file no problem:
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.EnableRaisingEvents = false
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\Users\jwoow\Desktop\Server\run.bat";
proc.Start().ToString();
but it doesn't move the code over to the textbox, this code transfers the last displayed line, but not the entire thing of the batch file and it also closes the cmd window, i need it to stay open:
Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;

the batch file is for a server, it displays the amt of users on it (updates ever 2 minutes) and shows different events taken by the users. so it is constantly updating.

Running Batch To Write To Text File, Not Working
Aug 16, 2010Not sure if there is a better way to do this but this isn't working. Just trying to run a batch command "query session" and put it into a text file using "> sessions.txt". When I run this command in a command prompt it works fine and spits the output to the text. I've tried just making the batch file in the same folder and executing that with Process.Start, still empty text file. Tried modifying the loop and no go also

Batch Copying Of Files?
May 17, 2012I am busy writing a application that i can set up a list of files to copy from one location to a remote network drive.
THe program has a list of "jobs" in a datagrid that it loops through and executes in sequence. What i have now is a background worker that reports the status of which job it is on (File 1 of 5) but i would like something that shows the status of the current copying file as sometimes large files can look like it's stopped on the network
I am using the System.io.file.copy structure, but have also tried the my.computer.filesystem.copyfile (which shows the status in a "windows" copy box)
So, what i would like is some guidance on how to create a function that will copy the file but also report back progress periodicly. I don't want to read and write byte for byte as im worried this will be too slow.
Also, is there a better way/function to use to copy files? Looking for best speed
Batch Printing Of Files?
Oct 17, 2011I have been asked to develop a solution which send to the default printer a list of files stored in a directory in file name sequence. These files maybe of any type - such as pdf or Office documents.
I have seen suggestions to using a process class (such as [URL]..However, the process would run largely unmonitored so I have concerns with regards to being able to control the submission of the numerous jobs to the printer and, for example, stopping the print should there be a failureerror in the print queue.

Oct 1, 2010I am having trouble finding a code for visual basic 2010 (or 2008) that will compile batch files to a .exe format. (So they can no longer be edited.)So far I've only found one program that does this (And was made in Visual Studios) and the program doesn't even actually work due to some unknown error. It'd be a great help to get a source code or just told that this isn't even possible.

Performing Batch Processing On Selected Files
Mar 11, 2012I have created tool which performs batch processing on files that are selected. The sub routine I have defined in the code, now I want to implement a way through which I can select actions that I want to perform and then perform the actions. For example the list has multiple actions, like Open, Close, SaveAs, Resize, Color Correct etc. I should be able to select what all I want to do on each file and then perform this actions. Someone suggested me using delegates for this, but I cant use that since all my functions have different parameters. Ither option I had is to use a nested IfElse or Switch to determine which action is selected and call function according to it, but thats to heavy I think, is there any optimized a better way to do this.???

View 1 RepliesForms :: Listbox - Program That Takes Common Applications And Installs Them Silently Using Batch Files
Aug 21, 2010I'm making a program that takes common applications and installs them silently using batch files. Someone would select the programs they would want to install and my program will write a giant batch file and execute it to install whatever they want. Heres the problem, After the user selects the programs they go into either one or two lists. Non Silent Installer List Or Silent installer list.
Some programs I have simply won't go silently so from there they can choose in what order they want to install these programs. Then there is a combo box that tells weather you want to install non silent programs first or last. From there you hit add to batch file and it would add everything in listbox1 and listbox2 in order. Listbox1 would contain just the text "MalwareBytes" for example. Along with Novell Groupwise and Firefox. How do I get that to add to the Batch List as a code and in order? So the user wants Malware bytes added first to the batch file. How do I add that to my batch list as a completely different code?

View 3 RepliesOverwriting Application Files While Running?
Jan 8, 2010I currently have two applications. The main app and the updater app. When the main app checks his version with the webservice and it is out of date, it will download a zip archive and then start the updater. The updater will extract the zip archive overwriting the old files of the main app.
Is it possible to do this without the need of a 2nd app, in this case the updater? Can you like, store your application in the computers memory and overwrite the files?
