old behavior was whenever the user types "exit" to stop the entire terminal, which is not correct (e.g. does not work correctly for nested cmd.exe sessions). Now we wait for the top-level process to exit, which I think is more correct.
Also contains a minor rename, Process -> ProcessFactory, ProcessResources -> Process.
- Full Dispose Pattern for ProcessResources since it has unmanaged resources
- Basic Dispose Pattern for PseudoConsolePipe since it has managed resources
- Fix naming of iStdOut to hStdOut
- Change parameter order of Process.Start to make more sense
- Move from rather ad-hoc, error-prone resource management to IDisposable, which should give us a bit more enforcement.
- Optimistically remove "buggy" from readme because the known bugs are now fixed! The main source of bugs was the incorrect InitializeProcThreadAttributeList usage.
- Handle ctrl-c by forwarding it to the PseudoConsole
- Handle terminal close when the window close button is used
- Use .NET's CopyTo in the CopyPipeToOutput, it's much simpler code and seems more robust than the ReadFile/WriteFile approach
- Minor refactor to split native APIs to multiple files
This sample implements a simple "Echo Console" that illustrates the mechanism by which a caller can directly invoke & communicate with Command-Line applications.
1. Creates two pipes - one for output, the second for output
1. Creates a Pseudo Console attached to the other end of the pipes
1. Creates a child process (an instance of `ping.exe` in this case), attached to the Pseudo Console
1. Creates a thread that reads the input pipe, displaying received text on the screen
