  1. PORetrieve results of regsvr32 execution from command line (without message boxes/popups)
    text
    copied!<p>C# WinForms application (.NET 4)</p> <p>Directory path is selected from a combo(dropdown) menu and it is then included in the following command line statement.</p> <pre><code>for %f in ("&lt; path &gt;\*.ocx" "&lt; path &gt;\*.dll") do regsvr32 /s "%f" </code></pre> <p>where <strong>&lt; path ></strong> is the directory path.</p> <p>This executes fine. I would like to retrieve the registration successful messages (or errors) without the user having to click OK a thousand times to the popup / message box that displays. Obviously the silent (/s) switch gets rid of the popups.</p> <p>What would be the best way to retrieve the results without the user seeing anything on their screen (besides the application itself)?</p> <p>This is what I have right now,</p> <pre><code>public void reg_in_source_2() { ProcessStartInfo cmdStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(); cmdStartInfo.FileName = @"C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe"; cmdStartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; cmdStartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true; cmdStartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true; cmdStartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; cmdStartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true; Process cmdProcess = new Process(); cmdProcess.StartInfo = cmdStartInfo; cmdProcess.ErrorDataReceived += cmd_Error; cmdProcess.OutputDataReceived += cmd_DataReceived; cmdProcess.EnableRaisingEvents = true; cmdProcess.Start(); cmdProcess.BeginOutputReadLine(); cmdProcess.BeginErrorReadLine(); cmdProcess.StandardInput.WriteLine(@"for %%f in (""" + reference.source_folder + @"\*.ocx"" " + reference.source_folder + @"\*.dll"") do regsvr32 ""%%f"""); cmdProcess.StandardInput.WriteLine("exit"); cmdProcess.WaitForExit(); } public void cmd_DataReceived(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e) { reference.cmd_replies.Add(e.Data); } public void cmd_Error(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e) { reference.cmd_replies_errors.Add(e.Data); } </code></pre>
