Is it possible to alter the look of the text in a console app such as it's
colour etc? If not can anything think of a way/product that lets me have a
console-type app with different coloured text?

The Framework 2.0 allows you do that. In the 1.0 and 1.1 you can use the
Windows API to do the same.

Any hints on what API I need? Sample code would be great if you have it.

Try also this: http://www.ai.uga.edu/mc/Konsole.zip
Color, cursor positioning, etc., and if the console is redirected to a file,
it behaves reasonably.

Hi All,
I am developing an application that needs to run in one of two modes:
1. If No command line param is provided the application should run as
Window form.
2. If command line param is provided the application should run as a
console application.
For this i created a windows application with Main

This is long. Bear with me, as I will really go through all the convoluted
stuff that shows there is a problem with streams (at least when used to
redirect stdout).
The basic idea is that my application (VB.NET) will start a process,
redirect its stdout and capture that process' output, displaying it in a
window.
I've written a component for this, and a test application for the component.
It allows me to specify a command to execute,...

Hi,
I'm programming a WinForm application. I would like to
enter commands that will send output that will help me to
locate bugs in the future.
I know that there is a way to send output by using the
Console.Write command. The question is how can I see the
outputs in the client machine ? Is there a specific
programm to do it or Can I use the prompt window ?

Hi,
can I detect whether my class is running within the context of a Console
application, vs say a WinForm's application ?
also does anyone know whether the compiler or runtime is smart enough to
avoid the overhead of writing to the console if it is not visible, eg I
am running inside a WinForm application.
thanks

I just recently noticed that when I start my applicatoin in debug mode, the IDE
hangs (no disk or CPU activity) indefinitely (at least 20 minutes). Pausing the
application shows that it's hung up at a line in a referenced assembly, one of
my own, which is a simple Console.WriteLine() statement. The stack trace shows
this line one level under the current frame, which is displayed as .
Anyone seen this behavior before, know what causes it?...

I have created a console app that simply prints out a message a couple
times, then exits, here is the code:
<code>
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500);
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Sleeping...{0}", i));
}
Console.WriteLine("Done!");

We were using Console.Writeline from within our app, to do some routine
debugging.
And then we started having random problems when the code was run by a
tester, on their own machine. We couldn't replicate these problems on
the developer machines.
And then we eventually worked out that on the dev machines Console
output was going to a window, and on the test machines it was
going....nowhere.

I'm trying to debug a console application, but I can't see the console

I'm using Visual Studio 2005. I've confirmed that my application is
compiled as a console application, and that I'm running in Debug mode.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
