How do you enter something at a console prompt programmatically?

I have program, that must interact with a console program before my program can continue what it is doing. I'm trying to avoid my user from having to interact with this dos program. So, I created a .bat file that does everything I need to do except for the last step which still requires user interaction that I'm trying to avoid.

Specifically, the command I type en开发者_JAVA百科ds up at a prompt where I need to automatically enter y and then Enter (to say yes to the prompt) and then I want to exit out.

Is there any way that I can make this happen automatically without my user having to enter y and Enter? Ideally, I'd like to have the console window NOT even pop up while this is going on.


You can pipe in a 'y' character into the program like so:

echo y | executable.exe

Multiple lines can be entered like so:

(echo y
echo n) | executable.exe

...which will pass first 'y' then 'n'.

See tip from Microsoft here.


The post from Microsoft also clearly says :

Do not type a space between the "y" and the pipe symbol (|)

and indeed, I noticed that in my case

echo y | executable.exe

doesn't work while

echo y| executable.exe

works fine


I used the following, since "echo y | executable.exe" didn't worked for me

// Write a "Y" to the process's input
proc.StandardInput.WriteLine("Y");
// Now that we've sent the confirmation "Y" wait for the process to exit
proc.WaitForExit();
