Capturing spawned child process's STDOUT & STDERR

SG
Hello,
I'm using _execvpe (Win32 console project in VS.NET)
to spawn a child process. I would like to know if you
have any pointers on how to capture the child's STDOUT
and STDERR? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sri

I am writing a C++ program, which should create a sub- process to start a telnet session to another server. Then it should login to that server (on the telnet login) and execute one or more command(s) on the remote server. The C++ program provides all the input for this process (username, password, servername, commands, ...) and should capture all the output returned by the telnet session process inside some variable. How can this be...

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,...

I need to create a child process and read the child's stdout and stderr in the parent process. This seems to be surprisingly difficult to do in .NET. The documentation for the System.Diagnostics.Process class talks about creating separate threads for reading each stream. Is there an easier way? Has anyone already written a wrapper? Thanks.

I've been approached by a local business that has been advised that they need to start capturing and archiving their instant messaging in order to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley. The company is largely PC, but has a significant number of Macs running OS X, too. Googling around quickly turns up IM Grabber for the PC, which would seem to be just what they need. But there is no equivalent to be found for OS X. So if anyone knows of any such...

Hello all, Before I ask the question a couple of notes : * This question is for implementing a script inside the Wing IDE. For some reason using the subprocess module doesn't work so I need a solution that doesn't use this module. * The platform is Windows and I'm happy with a Windoze only solution. :-)

When I use os.popen(cmd,'w'), I find that under windows, the stdout of the child process disappears, instead of appearing in the DOS window the script is invoked from. eg: C:\type foo.py import os import sys file = os.popen("nslookup", 'w') file.write("google.com\n") file.close()

Hello, I have a C# application in which I start another process which produces output to stdout and stderr. In fact, that process is the uSoft VS2005 C/C++ compiler itself! I would like to capture the results of the compile and display them in a RichTextBox. The problem I'm having is that when I intentionally introduce an error in the C code I'm compiling, I can't read the error output in my C# program. I've tried redirecting both...

Hi All Does any one has idea about how to set stdout and stderr to a spawned process? I don't want to have all the handles of the parent process in the child process but I want only one of it (handle to a file). If I inherit all the handles of the parent process my application won't work. So I am spawning a process without inheriting the handles but I am inheriting environment variables. Later I take the PID of the

Overview: 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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
