how to compile c program by asp c#

Question

I am making my college project like codepad.org.

Can anyone help in that how can I compile C and C++ program with C# in ASP.NET?

I have tried this code:

        Process proc = new Process();
        proc.StartInfo.FileName = "tc.exe";
        proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
        proc.Start();
        string output = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();

but it is giving error:

"The Process object must have the UseShellExecute property set to false in order to redirect IO streams."

and there is no method like "UseShellExecute".

Is this the correct way of doing or is there any other method?

thanx for the help but i think its not working for me because "proc.StartInfo.FileName = "tc.exe";" this line is opening tc nothing else — Arpit Suthar

It's all on MSDN.

ProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute Property

So you code would just need the UseShellExecute property set to false.

Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "tc.exe";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
proc.Start();
string output = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();

Well of course, you will need to specify which file to compile as well. something like proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "myfile.c"; (or whatever parameters tc.exe takes, but that wasn't the question).

StackOverflow is a site where you can get answers to specific problems after trying to solve them yourself. Saving a file is something that you almost can't fail at if you google it quickly so that is something for you to learn. If you get problems with it after trying, it should be a new question and not a comment on an answer on another question.

use this ProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute Property

Gets or sets a value indicating whether to use the operating system shell to start the process

proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;

Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "tc.exe";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
proc.Start();
string output = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
