Hello.

I was writing a program earlier which i had intended for it's output to be redirected, however when i got to the stage of trying to redirect it's output, i found an error... The program will run fine, no errors of any kind but when output is to be redirected, the file it is suposed to be dumped to will contain nothing. When running normally inside a console, with output to appear on the console screen it works fine. What could prevent it from having it's output from being redirected?

I wrote a small program demonstrating this behavior, it is attatched to the message. Included in the zip folder is the source code of the program, the compiled program and a batch file which tries to redirect the output to a file and then use the batch TYPE command to write the file to the screen.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help with this.

From the SDK on WriteConsole

I think you need to use WriteFile for redirection.

Thank you
