Sending input/getting output from a console application (C#/WinForms)

Question

I have a form with 3 controls:

1. A textbox for the user to enter commands to send to a console application,
2. A button to confirm the commands to be sent

Answer 1

The best solution I have found is:

private void Redirect(StreamReader input, TextBox output)
{
    new Thread(a =>
    {
        var buffer = new char[1];
        while (input.Read(buffer, 0, 1) > 0)
        {
            output.Dispatcher.Invoke(new Action(delegate
            {
                output.Text += new string(buffer);
            }));
        };
    }).Start();
}

private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    process = new Process
    {
        StartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
        {
            CreateNoWindow = true,
            FileName = "app.exe",
            RedirectStandardError = true,
            RedirectStandardOutput = true,
            UseShellExecute = false,
        }
    };
    if (process.Start())
    {
        Redirect(process.StandardError, textBox1);
        Redirect(process.StandardOutput, textBox1);
    }
}
