control cmd.exe with c# (send and read outputs)

I want to send and receive commands like "dir" and so on 开发者_开发知识库but i can't manage to read the output

You have to redirect std in and std out. Once you do that, in C#, use the console as you would if you were writing a console app.

If you are trying to execute an external application and capture the output you should look at this. The System.IO namespace has Directory, File, and Path classed which avoid the need to use external applications to enumerate directories.

You should not use console commands from code unless you really need to. (Hint: You don't)

You're looking for Directory.GetFiles.
