To avoid the infinity loop simply use a WaitHandle. To let the process be exited from the outer world use a EventWaitHandle with a unique string. Below is an example. If you start it the first time, it simple prints out a message every 10 seconds. If you start in the mean time a second … Read more
For a .NET Core 2.0 console app, I did the following: Create a new file named appsettings.json at the root of the project (the file name can be anything) Add my specific settings to that file as json. For example: { “myKey1” : “my test value 1”, “myKey2” : “my test value 2”, “foo” : … Read more
It’ll need doubles quotes, but will also likely need an @ to treat the string word-for-word (verbatim string) i.e. the “\” has a special meaning in string e.g. \t means a tab, so we want to ignore the \ So not only the double quotes, but also @ string myArgument = @”D:\Visual Studio Projects\ProjectOnTFS\ProjectOnTFS”;

Please don’t do that on an application that is meant to be used from other users, unless they request this feature. Consolas is the only font for consoles on my system :p You can try to change the properties of the link that opens the console (or the executable), but that is a local setting … Read more
The following code works for me: #include <windows.h> #include <stdio.h> BOOL WINAPI consoleHandler(DWORD signal) { if (signal == CTRL_C_EVENT) printf(“Ctrl-C handled\n”); // do cleanup return TRUE; } int main() { running = TRUE; if (!SetConsoleCtrlHandler(consoleHandler, TRUE)) { printf(“\nERROR: Could not set control handler”); return 1; } while (1) { /* do work */ } return … Read more
You can’t. Half the point of such config files is to allow changes to the configuration of the app outside of the app itself. You would simply have to modify your program so that it didn’t have a dependency on the app config file — easiest way to do that would be to just stick … Read more
The only reason for calling Exit() as the last line of the Main method is if there might be other foreground threads running. They would stay running if execution just fell off the end of Main. Even in this case, it would usually be a better idea either to put in some explicit graceful termination … Read more
You need to add a reference to System.Drawing.dll. As mentioned in the comments below this can be done as follows: In your Solution Explorer (Where all the files are shown with your project), right click the “References” folder and find System.Drawing on the .NET Tab.
You don’t get a return value from Task.WaitAll. You only use it to wait for completion of multiple tasks and then get the return value from the tasks themselves. var task1 = GetAsync(1); var task2 = GetAsync(2); Task.WaitAll(task1, task2); var result1 = task1.Result; var result2 = task2.Result; If you only have a single Task, just … Read more
