problem with system.process

[Prashant]

Hi,

this is my code, below, I am executing a batch file that in turn executes
multiple .sql files, my concern is if there is some problem with .sql files,
the calling program should get the error back, that is not happening.

do you have any idea how to trap the error with Process?

thanks,

Prashant



arrDbProperties = ConnectionString.Split(';');

arrServerName = arrDbProperties[0].Split('=');

arrDbName = arrDbProperties[1].Split('=');

dbName = arrDbName[1].Trim().ToString();

serverName = arrServerName[1].Trim().ToString();

sqlFilePath = webConfigPath + "ICE2.1Temp\\ICE2.1\\SQL\\";

batchFile = webConfigPath + "ICE2.1Temp\\ICE2.1\\SQL\\Drop_DB2.1.bat";

Process proc = new Process();

proc.EnableRaisingEvents = false;

proc.StartInfo.FileName = batchFile;

proc.StartInfo.Arguments = dbName + " " + serverName + " " + sqlFilePath;

proc.Start();

proc.WaitForExit();

proc = null;

With Process, you can get the command line output in the Standard Output of
the process object. That being said, SQL does not always output errors and
exceptions, which means you must check for errors in your batches and output
using PRINT statements to see some errors. I would look in this direction to
ensure you are getting these exceptions if you wish to fire off SQL code in
Process (ie, in a black box).
