I\'m trying to execute a batch file in C#, but I\'m not getting any luck doing it.
I\'ve found multiple examples on the Internet doing it, but it is not working for
After some great help from steinar this is what worked for me:
public void ExecuteCommand(string command)
{
int ExitCode;
ProcessStartInfo ProcessInfo;
Process process;
ProcessInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(Application.StartupPath + "\\txtmanipulator\\txtmanipulator.bat", command);
ProcessInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
ProcessInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
ProcessInfo.WorkingDirectory = Application.StartupPath + "\\txtmanipulator";
// *** Redirect the output ***
ProcessInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;
ProcessInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
process = Process.Start(ProcessInfo);
process.WaitForExit();
// *** Read the streams ***
string output = process.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
string error = process.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
ExitCode = process.ExitCode;
MessageBox.Show("output>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(output) ? "(none)" : output));
MessageBox.Show("error>>" + (String.IsNullOrEmpty(error) ? "(none)" : error));
MessageBox.Show("ExitCode: " + ExitCode.ToString(), "ExecuteCommand");
process.Close();
}
