C's method of executing the DOS command

The example in this article shows how C# executes the DOS command. Share to everybody for everybody reference. Specific implementation methods are as follows:

In the c# program, it is sometimes used to call the cmd command to do 1 of these things. This article describes the following method to achieve the function of c# to execute the DOS command and return the result.

//dosCommand Dos Command statement   

public string Execute(string dosCommand)  

{  

    return Execute(dosCommand, 10);  

}  

/// <summary>  

///  perform DOS Command, return DOS Output of a command   

/// </summary>  

/// <param name="dosCommand">dos The command </param>  

/// <param name="milliseconds"> The time to wait for the command to execute in milliseconds,   

///  If I set it to 0 , then wait indefinitely </param>  

/// <returns> return DOS Output of a command </returns>  

public static string Execute(string command, int seconds)  

{  

    string output = ""; // Output string   

    if (command != null && !command.Equals(""))  

    {  

 Process process = new Process();// Create process objects   

 ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();  

 startInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";// Sets the command to be executed   

 startInfo.Arguments = "/C " + command;// " /C "Means to quit immediately after executing an order   

 startInfo.UseShellExecute = false;// Start without using the system shell   

 startInfo.RedirectStandardInput = false;// Do not redirect the input   

 startInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; // Redirected output   

 startInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;// Not creating a window   

 process.StartInfo = startInfo;  

 try  

 {  

     if (process.Start())// Start process   

     {  

  if (seconds == 0)  

  {  

      process.WaitForExit();// Wait indefinitely for the process to end   

  }  

  else  

  {  

      process.WaitForExit(seconds); // Wait for the process to finish for the specified number of milliseconds   

  }  

  output = process.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();// Read the output of the process   

     }  

 }  

 catch  

 {  

 }  

 finally  

 {  

     if (process != null)  

  process.Close();  

 }  

    }  

    return output;  

}
