It's a little bit complicated problem. I have tried probably everything and still no working. I run WinForm application from I run CMD and next run another app(console application) on cmd. It's working on /c START xyz
but when app finished CMD always is closing. I want to pause this window.
ProcessStartInfo processInfo = new ProcessStartInfo {
FileName = "cmd.exe",
WorkingDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(YourApplicationPath),
Arguments = "/K START " + cmdparametr,
RedirectStandardOutput = true,
RedirectStandardInput = true,
RedirectStandardError = true,
CreateNoWindow = false,
UseShellExecute = false,
WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Normal,
};
Process p = new Process {
StartInfo = processInfo
};
p.Start();
int ExitCode;
p.WaitForExit();
// *** Read the streams ***
string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
string error = p.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
ExitCode = p.ExitCode;
MessageBox.Show("output>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(output) ? "(none)" : output));
MessageBox.Show("error>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(error) ? "(none)" : error));
MessageBox.Show("ExitCode: " + ExitCode.ToString(), "ExecuteCommand");
p.Close();
ReadStream
is working when I add argument: START /b
but I think it's not important.
WaitForExit()
doesn't work.
Is it possible to pause application through command maybe like this: /k start xyz.exe & PAUSE
?
My app is console application!
You can use the pause
-command inside C# if you want: I use it as follows:
Solution №1:
//optional: Console.WriteLine("Press any key ...");
Console.ReadLine(true);
Solution №2: (Uses P/Invoke)
// somewhere in your class
[DllImport("msvcrt.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl, SetLastError=true)]
public static extern int system(string command);
public static int Main(string[] argv)
{
// your code
system("pause"); // will automaticly print the localized string and wait for any user key to be pressed
return 0;
}
string bat_path = "%temp%/temporary_file.bat"; string command = "command to be executed incl. arguments"; using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(bat_path, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Read)) using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(fs, Encoding.Default)) { sw.WriteLine("@echo off"); sw.WriteLine(command); sw.WriteLine("PAUSE"); } ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo() { WorkingDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(YourApplicationPath), RedirectStandardOutput = true, RedirectStandardInput = true, RedirectStandardError = true, CreateNoWindow = false, UseShellExecute = false, WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Normal }; Process p = new Process() { StartInfo = psi; }; p.Start(); int ExitCode; p.WaitForExit(); // *** Read the streams *** string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd(); string error = p.StandardError.ReadToEnd(); ExitCode = p.ExitCode; MessageBox.Show("output>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(output) ? "(none)" : output)); MessageBox.Show("error>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(error) ? "(none)" : error)); MessageBox.Show("ExitCode: " + ExitCode.ToString(), "ExecuteCommand"); p.Close(); File.Delete(bat_path);
For preventing the close of a Console Application you could use :
Console.ReadLine();
It would wait for for any key and would not close immediately.
Do not include START
command, use something like this
processInfo.Arguments = "/K " + your_console_app_exe_path_and_args;
Make sure to enclose with double quotes where needed.
