But is LUA a free language? Not that it matters, but I'm just curious. AndI didn't know that LUA and pearl had .net implimintations. -----Original Message----- From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Littlefield, Tyler Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 4:06 PM To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: C# console application executing command line commands?Rather than make assumptions, why don't you read a bit about them?

Usually, C# is a little too heavy weight to perform batch file/scripting tasks so there's no real elegant way of doing this. C# wants you to stay within the abstractions of processes, threads, and objects. With that said, why not just use the static member Process.Start(string filename, string arguments); http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/h6ak8zt5.aspx i.e. try { Process.Start("copy", @"/s c:\documents\foo z:\bar\"); Process.Start("del", @"/f c:\documents\foo\temp.txt"); } catch (Exception exp) { } ...

I have done this for an application which receives an sql file and changes with capitals all keywords.

In other words, would actually have preferred to just handle this in a batch file, but it's been a while since used one of them to try manipulate any variable values, etc. Looking into this also got me thinking about a few other possible usesfora command line/console app, and that's also why started wondering about getting it to execute command line commands, and exit/finish off itsself after code execution, but the other application/usage of console applications would most likely be related to either utilities, or simple, pseudo games etc. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamal Mazrui" <empower@xxxxxxxxx> To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "Jacob Kruger" <jacobk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 4:16 AM Subject: Re: C# console application executing command line commands?Are you interested in creating a console mode environment with a read-execute-print-loop (REPL)? Generally, this requires a dynamic language that includes an "Eval" function that can evaluate arbitrary code at runtime and display the result. C# and Visual Basic do not have such a feature. JScript .NET, IronPython, IronRuby, F#, Boo, and Nemerl -- all .NET languages -- do.

No you're not. All you have to do is to use the Console Apptemplatein VS2010 or 2008.

Ok, next silly question... Since have never really created command line/console applications,am now just trying to figure out how to get a console applicationcreated in C# to execute command line commands, and then how to get it to close/exit itsself after operation? Idea would be to create a slightly trumped up target for something like a send to shortcut that can do a bit more than your average batch file. Have looked for simple examples, but am obviously, again, using incorrect search terms or something - LOL!
