How to read standard output of my own application

问题

I have an application that must read it's own output that is written via

Console.WriteLine("blah blah");

I'm trying

Process p = Process.GetCurrentProcess();
StreamReader input = p.StandardOutput;
input.ReadLine();

But it doesn't work because of "InvalidOperationException" at the second line. It says something like "StandardOutput wasn't redirected, or the process has not been started yet" (translated)

How can I read my own output ? Is there another way to do that ? And to be complete how to write my own input ?

The application with the output is running already.

I want to read it's output live in the same application. There is no 2nd app. Only one.

I'm just guessing as to what your intention might be but if you want to read the output from a application you started you can redirect the output.

 // Start the child process.
 Process p = new Process();
 // Redirect the output stream of the child process.
 p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
 p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
 p.StartInfo.FileName = "Write500Lines.exe";
 p.Start();
 // Do not wait for the child process to exit before
 // reading to the end of its redirected stream.
 // p.WaitForExit();
 // Read the output stream first and then wait.
 string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
 p.WaitForExit();

example from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.process.standardoutput.aspx

Edit:

If you want to redirect the output of your current console application as your edit specifies you can use.

private static void Main(string[] args)
{
    StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
    Console.SetOut(writer);
    Console.WriteLine("hello world");

    StringReader reader = new StringReader(writer.ToString());
    string str = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
