Process.StandardOutput

Question

I've been looking for an example or any help on how to put limitations on Process.StandardOutput so that when its method(ReadtoEnd) is called it isn't exploted or flooded. I've read to not do a thread.sleep but a timer which in my previouse question I can not get to funciton.

Instead of reading the output synchronously 'in one chunk' you can read it asynchronously line by line using the Process.BeginOutputReadLine() method in combination with a handler for the OutputDataReceived event. Check out this MSDN link for an example and some notes on the technique: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.process.beginoutputreadline(v=vs.110).aspx
