So I have discovered, and that was what lead to my confusion. The
following code using wget does, however work. You will notice that I am
reading the stream from stderr. When I do this I am able to retrieve
the status information that wget normally writes to the console.
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.IO;
class MainClass
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo();
psi.FileName = "/usr/bin/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 = false;
psi.RedirectStandardOutput = false;
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 RedirectInput: " +
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput);
Console.WriteLine("Process RedirectOutput: " +
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput);
Console.WriteLine("Process RedirectError: " +
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError);
Console.WriteLine("Processing");
bool retn = false;
while (!retn)
{
StreamReader sr = null;
sr = process.StandardError;
string content = sr.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine("Stuff my GUI application will use: "
+ content);
retn = process.WaitForExit(1000);
}
Console.WriteLine("Process has exited: " + retn.ToString());
process.Close();
}
}
