[tpm] OT: getting the output from .Net apps

[Indy Singh]

One work-around would be to direct the output a file first then ‘cat’ the file.

Subject: [tpm] OT: getting the output from .Net apps

Thanks Alan, I've made some interesting discovery based on your suggestion. 

$ bin/Debug/ConsoleApp > output

$ wc output 
1  3 23 output

It looks that my .Net app writes to STDOUT OK. That's what I've been testing.
But look. 

$ bin/Debug/ConsoleApp | wc 
      0       0       0

$ echo `bin/Debug/ConsoleApp` | wc
      1       0       1

So now I can confirm that it has nothing to do with Perl, but my .Net app and cygwin. 
Still, anyone can help?

Thanks

  Is .Net specifically defined as writing to STDOUT?

  You could try something like $bin/Debug/ConsoleApp | wc to see if the
  output redirects normally.

  Then perhaps $`bin/Debug/ConsoleApp` | wc and  $wc `bin/Debug/ConsoleApp`
  to see if there any problems with the subshell.

  (It doesn't have to be wc, just another command that will produce an
  identifiable result if ConsoleApp outputs something.)
