PipeExec provides an easy way to start and interact with a process over Stdin, Stdout, and Stderr.

Syntax

PipeExec

Remarks

The PipeExec component provides a way to launch a process and then send/receive data to/from the process. To begin set ProcessFileName to the path of the process on disk. Optionally set ProcessArgs and ProcessWorkingDir.

Call StartProcess to start the process. Next set Stdin or call Send to send data to the process. Received data will be provided through the Stdout and Stderr events.

To terminate the process call StopProcess.

Example Code

Pipeexec exec = new Pipeexec();
exec.OnStdout += exec_OnStdout;
exec.ProcessFileName = @"C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe";
exec.ProcessArgs = "/Q";
exec.StartProcess();

exec.Stdin = "dir" + System.Environment.NewLine;

while (true) //Wait for output
  exec.DoEvents();

static void exec_OnStdout(object sender, PipeexecStdoutEventArgs e)
{
  Console.WriteLine(e.Text);
}
