If I am right the TProcess currently does not allow redirection of
StdOut/In to/from a file (or other handle provided).
It does, if you need a runcommandloop like routine that writes to
file. Partially this can be even simplified by inheriting TProcess and
overriding readinputstream
But that means the parent process has to read the data (from the file)
and forward it.
Also not sure how to simulate an EOF in that case....
Is this something that should be added? (I.e. a feature request to be
added)
If yes, should there just be 3 properties for the handles? A callback
to create/provide them? A virtual method?
Should there be a flag?
Maybe you can create a predefined derivative that does this with less
additional code, but this should already be possible.
Afaik, only if the parent process does the forwarding.
If the parent process is busy the child process will need to wait... If
the parent process wants to launch the child, and the parent then exits....
