Capture and display console output at the same time
- by Patrick
Hi,
MSDN states that it is possible in .NET to capture the output of a process and display it in the console window at the same time.
Normally when you set StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; the console window stays blank.
As the MSDN site doesn't provide a sample for this I was wondering if anyone would have a sample or could point me to a sample?
When a Process writes text to its
standard stream, that text is normally
displayed on the console. By
redirecting the StandardOutput
stream, you can manipulate or suppress
the output of a process. For example,
you can filter the text, format it
differently, or write the output to
both the console and a designated log
file.

This post is similar to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/786726/capture-standard-output-and-still-display-it-in-the-console-window by the way. But that post didn't end up with a working sample.
Thanks a lot,
Patrick
