I want to start a Java program from PowerShell and get the results printed on the console.
I have followed the instructions of this question: Capturing standard out
Small variation so that you can selectively print the output if needed. As in if your looking just for error or warning messages and by the way Keith you saved my bacon with your response...
$psi = New-object System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo
$psi.CreateNoWindow = $true
$psi.UseShellExecute = $false
$psi.RedirectStandardOutput = $true
$psi.RedirectStandardError = $true
$psi.FileName = 'robocopy'
$psi.Arguments = @("$HomeDirectory $NewHomeDirectory /MIR /XF desktop.ini /XD VDI /R:0 /W:0 /s /v /np")
$process = New-Object System.Diagnostics.Process
$process.StartInfo = $psi
[void]$process.Start()
do
{
$process.StandardOutput.ReadLine()
}
while (!$process.HasExited)
