Obtain CMD Output Stream Formatted and retaining CLI integrity?

kjpolker · December 20, 2021

Odd title, but I am having a ton of issues interfacing with a batch file/command line executable.

1. For starters, the StdoutRead doesn't paste as the formatted text set in the RichEdit field. It retains a generic font with black font color.

2. I cannot get the responses to append or include line feeds, it just sets line 0 to the first line and never updates.

3. I don't want to lose the functionality of the Command Line Window. This is so I can still shut it down with Ctrl+C but when calling the batch file in a Run it brings up a completely blank window (@SW_SHOW flagged) and I have no idea what it's doing, not to mention it will not close when done executing. It just opens and never closes unless I manually close.

4. Stop button will not soft exit the execution, I cannot figure out a way to send Ctrl+C to the Command Line, followed by a "y" and "{ENTER}"

Test batch file:

@echo Testing for line 1
@echo Testing for line 2

Script:

I have searched countless posts in the forums for help and most end in no answers, a complete change in the original post, or a assumed solution but no final script showcasing the solution... The first page of google results are all visited, purple links with the criteria "autoit stdoutread edit", "autoit stdoutread line feed", "autoit stdoutread formatting", "autoit stdwrite ctrl+c", "autoit launch batch file", "autoit stdoutread batch file" and a few others. Apparently I am just searching the wrong things 😪

If I had to pick and choose my priorities it would be to get the output line by line, allow closing of the batch file correctly (then idc if the CLI is shown or not). Lastly formatting of the output.

Well I have gotten the multiline to work... Oddly I needed $ES_MULTILINE even though it says in the help file that it is defaulted. Still can't get formatting correct and it continuously spams my test batch file repeatedly.

kjpolker,

You are overriding the default $ES_MULTILINE style by defining a number of other styles when you create the RichEdit control - just add it to the list you already have to include it. Perhaps reading the Setting Styles tutorial in the Wiki might be worth your time.

Thank you for the formatting fix. It seems to be working great! Is that a common problem with RichEdits? I assumed setting the font and color would be within the entire field and not need formatted from top to bottom.

;                                       |$sigCtrlBreak - A CTRL+BREAK signal was received.
;                                       |$sigCtrlClose - A signal that the system sends to all processes attached to a console
;                                                       when the user closes the console (either by clicking Close on the console
;                                                       window's window menu, or by clicking the End Task button command
;                                                       from Task Manager).
;                                       |$sigCtrlLogOff - A signal that the system sends to all console processes when a user
;                                                       is logging off. This signal does not indicate which user is logging off,
;                                                       so no assumptions can be made.
;                                                       Note that this signal is received only by services. Interactive
;                                                       applications are terminated at logoff, so they are not present
;                                                       when the system sends this signal.

;                                                           this signal, therefore it can be received only be services in this
;                                                           situation. Services also have their own notification mechanism
;                                                           for shutdown events.

Appreciate the response! There is a lot going on in that for me to digest. All that is needed to continue the functionality of the command console?

;                                       |$sigCtrlBreak - A CTRL+BREAK signal was received.

;                                                       when the user closes the console (either by clicking Close on the console
;                                                       window's window menu, or by clicking the End Task button command
;                                                       from Task Manager).

;                                                       is logging off. This signal does not indicate which user is logging off,
;                                                       so no assumptions can be made.
;                                                       Note that this signal is received only by services. Interactive
;                                                       applications are terminated at logoff, so they are not present

;                                                           this signal, therefore it can be received only be services in this
;                                                           situation. Services also have their own notification mechanism
;                                                           for shutdown events.
