If I redirect StandardOutput/StandardError when creating a Process object, should I dispose the StreamReaders when I no longer need the Process object? Using reflector I see that Process.Dispose() does not do this for me (unless I’m missing something).
Yes the process object disposes of its own readers and their underlying streams. Redirected output retrieves a reader instance but the underlying stream is still managed by the processinfo which gets disposed automatically so no, you don’t need to dispose of the reader.
