Well, I solved part of this issue, by changing the line:
<code>
while(process.StandardOutput.Peek() > -1)
</code>
to:
<code>
while(m_working == true)
</code>
I was able to get my test console application to work fine, it spit out the
messages just like I would expect.
When I switched over to my real command line app that I want to use, I still
get odd output. When I execute the comman line in a shell, I get this
output:
<console output>

When I run the same command line with my Process object, I get this output
in my GUI:
<output>

So... why aren't I seeing everything else? Any ideas what I could check
for?

I just noticed something interesting.. if I set a breakpoint on line:
line = process.StandardOutput.ReadLine();
and then use F10 to step through the loop, then I can see that each line
is being read and indeed printed to the UI, but if there is no breakpoint
only one line is printed out.
maybe Peek() isn't the best thing to be checking...
"Steve" <ss*@sss.com> wrote in message
news:uC**************@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... 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!");
</code>
Then in my winform app, I have this bit of code that creates a new
Process; <code>
public void Build()
{
String commandLine = "";
commandLine =
@"C:\PMDRepository\Tools\DQ_Tools\FirmwareEditor\C onsoleTest\bin\Debug\Conso
leTest.exe";
// execute
Process process = new Process();
process.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
process.Exited += new EventHandler(ProcessExited);
process.StartInfo.FileName = commandLine;
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput= true;
process.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
process.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized;
try
{
process.Start();
m_working = true;
string line = string.Empty;
string previousReadLine = string.Empty;
while(process.StandardOutput.Peek() > -1)
{
line = process.StandardOutput.ReadLine();
if(line != previousReadLine)
{
previousReadLine = line;
m_log.LogRaw("IARBuilder:\t{0}", line);
}
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
m_log.LogError(ex.Message);
}
}
</code>
in the while(process.StandardOutput.Peek() > -1)) loop, execution enters
that once, but never again. I'm not sure what's happening, but it seems
like it captures the output once, then doesn't try to read it again.
Anyone know the correct way to do this?
Thanks for any help,
Steve
