如何从C＃程序写回命令行

Question

Winform app that accepts CLI arguments opens new console window when run, but i want it to run in the CLI instead and return any Console.WriteLine()'s there

This is how i split out the GUI and the console

static class program{
    [STAThread]
    [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
    private static extern bool AllocConsole();

    static void Main(string[] args){
        if (args.Length > 0)
        {
            AllocConsole();
            Console.WriteLine("Yo!");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
        else
        {
            Application.EnableVisualStyles();
            Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
            Application.Run(new someForm());
        }
    }
}

"Yo!" appears in new console window, but i want it in the command interface

In addition to your code, you need to change following:

1) Set your project type to Console Application in project settings page. Your WinForms "mode" will run as expected if command line params are not supplied.

2) Remove the call to AllocConsole .

3) Hide the Console Window in case your are running the WinForms mode.

Here is the complete code:

[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
static extern IntPtr GetConsoleWindow();

[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern bool ShowWindow(IntPtr hWnd, int nCmdShow);

[STAThread]
static void Main(string [] args)
{
    if (args.Length > 0)
    {              
        Console.WriteLine("Yo!");
        Console.ReadKey();
    }
    else
    {
        ShowWindow(GetConsoleWindow(), 0);
        Application.EnableVisualStyles();
        Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
        Application.Run(new Form1());
    }                
}
