Read comamnd prompt output and displaying in User Interface

Hey Guys,

Creating a small tool with c# which will fetch the values displayed in the command prompt and display in an User Interface.

I run the below command in Command prompt,

Corflags.exe "MyApplication.exe"

Output:

Version   : v2.0.50727
CLR Header: 2.5
PE        : PE32
CorFlags : 11
ILONLY    : 1
32BIT     : 1
Signed    : 1

I want to read the value of CLR Header, 32BIT, PE in the command prompt and want to display in a Text box in my front end.
How do i fetch the values ?
Please assist.

Cheers,

For some reason I don't have corflags.exe on my system so I'm assuming the output is exactly as you've posted it.

As it's a console application, you'll need to redirect the output in order to capture it.

The following code should do it. It's assumed that the TextBox is multi-line:

using System.Diagnostics;

using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

// ...

Process p = new Process();

p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;

p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;

p.StartInfo.FileName = "corflags.exe"; // may need to specify full path here

p.StartInfo.Arguments = "MyApplication.exe"; // ditto

p.Start();

string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();

p.WaitForExit();

string regExp = @"(?m)^.*$";

MatchCollection mc = Regex.Matches(output, regExp);

var dict = new Dictionary();

foreach(Match m in mc)

{

if(m.Value.Contains(":"))

{

string[] items = Regex.Split(m.Value, @"\s*:\s*");

dict.Add(items[0].TrimStart(), items[1].TrimEnd());

}

string[] lines = new string[3];

lines[0] = String.Format("CLR Header : {0}", dict["CLR Header"]);

lines[1] = String.Format("32BIT : {0}", dict["32BIT"]);

lines[2] = String.Format("PE : {0}", dict["PE"]);

textBox1.Lines = lines;
