Вы можете запустить фоновый процесс
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.FileName = "Myapplication.exe";
startInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo = startInfo;
process.Start();
и после этого используйте свойство Process.StandardOutput
// This is the code for the base process
Process myProcess = new Process();
// Start a new instance of this program but specify the 'spawned' version.
ProcessStartInfo myProcessStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(args[0], "spawn");
myProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
myProcessStartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
myProcess.StartInfo = myProcessStartInfo;
myProcess.Start();
StreamReader myStreamReader = myProcess.StandardOutput;
// Read the standard output of the spawned process.
string myString = myStreamReader.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(myString);
myProcess.WaitForExit();
myProcess.Close();
Если вы хотите отправить команды этому процессу, просто используйте Process.StandardInput Свойство
// Start the Sort.exe process with redirected input.
// Use the sort command to sort the input text.
Process myProcess = new Process();
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "Sort.exe";
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
myProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true;
myProcess.Start();
StreamWriter myStreamWriter = myProcess.StandardInput;
// Prompt the user for input text lines to sort.
// Write each line to the StandardInput stream of
// the sort command.
String inputText;
int numLines = 0;
do
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter a line of text (or press the Enter key to stop):");
inputText = Console.ReadLine();
if (inputText.Length > 0)
{
numLines ++;
myStreamWriter.WriteLine(inputText);
}
} while (inputText.Length != 0);
