Question

I am new to C# and I am creating a UI for iperf(windows).

Since I could not obtain the source code for the windows version, I have to try a different method.

My aim is to create a UI which will re-direct the commands to command prompt and get the output and display it back in Visual Studio.

How do I achieve this?

Answer 1

Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
p.StartInfo.FileName = "your command here";
p.Start();
p.WaitForExit();
string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
p.WaitForExit();

Now output string variable holds result of command execution.
