Hi I’ve got an app that runs a long running process on the command line.
Is there a recommended or good way to stream the output messages asynchonously to a web form so there’s some indication of progress? A bit like TeamCity does for build scripts.
Should I be polling a webservice? Using the OutputDataReceived event? Turning off buffering?
I think it depends on what you need the UI to look like. If it’s just a utility-type thing, I’d just turn off response buffering.
However, if you need it to look pretty, use AJAX to poll a web service.
