Not all text is returned with StdoutRead

[tsjippy]

I want to show output in a GUI, so I do StdoutRead of the process.(OSCdimg)

Unfortunately, the program does not return the line with "% complete" in it.

And thats exactly what I need.

Does anyone know if its possible to get that data from the stream?

My code is below.

$result = Run(@ComSpec & " /c" & @TempDir & '\oscdimg.exe -b"D:\Windows 8 Pro\boot\etfsboot.com" -h -lWindowsInstallerPro -m -u1 "D:\Windows 8 Pro" "D:\W81"', "",@SW_Show, $stderr_child + $stdout_child)

While ProcessExists($result)
    MsgBox(0,"",StdoutRead($result,True),1)
WEnd

Hello tsjippy!

Welcome to the AutoIt forum!

Using code tags will make things a little easier for all of us, which can be done with the edit bottom on the bottom right of your post, or for future knowledge. Very easy, just use [ autoit ] ;code goes here [ /autoit ] (minus the spaces) or the squared triangle button on the toolbar.

Example:

$example = "test" ;; just a test

Thank you, changed it.

Good to know:)

My pleasure, my knowledge on this subject is miniscule, so I'm very sure someone with more knowledge will be along soon.

... and add a space after /c

tsjippy,

Try it like this...

local $out

$result = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & @TempDir & '\oscdimg.exe -b"D:\Windows 8 Pro\boot\etfsboot.com" -h -lWindowsInstallerPro -m -u1 "D:\Windows 8 Pro" "D:\W81"', "",@SW_Show, $stderr_child + $stdout_child)

While 1
    $out &= StdoutRead($result)
    if @error then exitloop
WEnd

msgbox(0,'',$out)

** - added space per jguinch

***- untested, don't have the WAIK kit installed locally

That does not work for me, what I want to show in my GUI how much of the image creation is completed.

What text are you getting when you run OSCdimg with this script?

I am missing the lowest line

[tsjippy]

or better is probably the example below:

In the ouput stream I have the following:

I suspect that the process is ending before the sysout stream closes and you are dropping out of the sysout read loop, hence my suggestion...suspicion only...

Belay that, your output shows that is not the case...

Also, you can try with StderrRead ?

[tsjippy]

No way, I receive the data with StderrRead

I thought that was only for errors, but probably the program treats it as an error then.

Thanks for all your help!
