SharpSSh: RunCommand in SshExec is always returning an empty string

When Using SharpSSh and the SshExec class, I can't get the RunCommand to work, it always returns an empty string. When I d开发者_StackOverflow社区ebug the SharpSsh library it returns -1 when it tries to read the command from a stream. It works when I use the sftp class in the same library, but that class doesn't support all the ftp commands I need.

Here is a standard example, I can't get this to produce a correct result either

SshConnectionInfo input = Util.GetInput();
SshExec exec = new SshExec(input.Host, input.User);
if(input.Pass != null) exec.Password = input.Pass;
if(input.IdentityFile != null) exec.AddIdentityFile( input.IdentityFile );

Console.Write("Connecting...");
exec.Connect();
Console.WriteLine("OK");
while(true)
{
    Console.Write("Enter a command to execute ['Enter' to cancel]: ");
    string command = Console.ReadLine();
    if(command=="")break;
    string output = exec.RunCommand(command);                
    Console.WriteLine(output);
}
Console.Write("Disconnecting...");
exec.Close();
Console.WriteLine("OK");

Any ideas on how I can get the RunCommand function to run some commands? Thanks for any help :)

To get the standard output and error streams from .RunCommand, I'll repeat the answer I posted to: SharpSSH - SSHExec, run command, and wait 5 seconds for data!

You may want to try the following overload:

SshExec exec = new SshExec("192.168.0.1", "admin", "haha");
exec.Connect();
string stdOut = null;
string stdError = null;
exec.RunCommand("interface wireless scan wlan1 duration=5", ref stdOut, ref stdError);

Console.WriteLine(stdOut);
exec.Close();

If their API does what the name implies, it should put the standard output of your command in stdOut and the standard error in stdError.
