Try this,
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.IO;
class MainClass
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo("wget");
//
//change the pths to one of your choosing
//
psi.Arguments = "-m -nd
--directory-prefix=/home/tracy/Downloads/test
--input-file=/home/tracy/Downloads/test/wgetlist";
psi.RedirectStandardInput = true;
psi.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
psi.RedirectStandardError = true;
//place the following text in a file name wgetlist
//ftp://[EMAIL
PROTECTED]/disks/2/mandrake/devel/cooker/i586/media/main/cdrdao-1.2.0-2mdk.i586.rpm
//
psi.UseShellExecute = false;
Process process = Process.Start(psi);
Console.WriteLine("Process Name: " + process.ProcessName);
Console.WriteLine("Process Id: " + process.Id);
Console.WriteLine("Process RedirectOutput: " +
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput);
bool retn = false;
int i = 1;
while (!retn)
{
retn = process.WaitForExit(1000);
Console.WriteLine("Application has exited: " +
retn.ToString());
StreamReader sr = process.StandardOutput;
Console.WriteLine("Whatever was in standard Output: " +
sr.ReadToEnd());
i++;
}
}
}
The test program reports that RedirectStandardOutput is False, even
though I set it to true, but as there is no output from wget displayed,
I assume that stdout has been redirected. But I don't get any output,
the test program block at the line
StreamReader sr = process.StandardOutput;
