ProcessStartInfo hanging on “WaitForExit”? Why?

Question

I have the following code:

info = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(\"TheProgram.exe\", String.Join(\" \", args));
info.CreateNoWindow = true;
info.Win         


        

Answer 1

This post maybe outdated but i found out the main cause why it usually hang is due to stack overflow for the redirectStandardoutput or if you have redirectStandarderror.

As the output data or the error data is large, it will cause a hang time as it is still processing for indefinite duration.

so to resolve this issue:

p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardoutput = False
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandarderror = False
