I need to automate an command line application. It asks the user to enter a password. All my approches to send the password via STDIN failed. Now I am trying to do this with an wrapper-programm using .NET.
I am starting the application creating a new process, setting the
StartInfo-properties and then start the process:
Dim app_path As String
Dim app_args As String
Dim myProcess As Process = New Process()
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = app_path
myProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = app_args
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
I did try to use the
StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput Property but with no success.
Now I came accross the
WriteConsoleInput function from the
kernel32.dll that I included like this:
Declare Function WriteConsoleInput Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "WriteConsoleInputA" (ByVal hConsoleInput As Integer, ByVal lpBuffer As String, ByVal nNumberOfCharsToWrite As Integer, ByRef lpNumberOfCharsWritten As Integer) As Boolean
I can get the handle of the process via the
myProcess.Handle property. But sending input to the input-buffer using this way was also not possible.
I found those questions but they did not help:
How do I write 'PAGE DOWN' into the console input buffer? (1475353)
Java - passing input into external C/C++ application (1421273)
Controlling a Windows Console App w/ stdin pipe (723424)
Using StraceNtX.exe I got this output for the moment the app is waiting for input:
[T4024] GetConsoleMode(f, 12d35c, 12d3af, 77bff894, ...) = 1

Can anyone tell me, what else to try or how to do the above the right way? Thanks!
Based on Tim Robinsons answere I've got this code now, but it does not work:
myProcess = New Process()
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = app_path
myProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = app_args
myProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Normal
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
' Wait for process requesting passwort input
Dim len As Integer
len = 0
Dim handle As Integer
handle = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE)
WriteConsoleInput(handle, "Test", 4, len)
My programm is an commandline application that should act as an wrapper.
The input is send but in a way that it is not typed into the password field but that below the password field a new promt is shown (without even showing the input).
Tim, can you give me an example?

I think we need to get rid of black communities, 50 years since the civil rights act passed we are still segregated. Just as the government manipulated grants, va loans and the real estate market to keep blacks from buying property in certain white, they could do the opposite????????????
I have no idea how to do it, many will be fiercely against it. As long as this separation exists we will continue to have these problems...
If you really wanted to "stick it to the man" you could bait the squirrels with your baloney and when they get close enough......throw smoke bombs and rocks at em!

Dumb and Dumber To got its first trailer on June 10 on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallone. It looks like everybody was waiting for this. The Dumb and Dumber To trailer gathered over 11 million views within less then 48 hours on Youtube. It sure was a smart move to premiere the trailer on the Jimmy Fallon show. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels also have been guest on the show. Watch the Dumb and Dumber To trailer below.
The original Dumb and Dumber movie came out 20 years ago. This is quite a long time. Can Dumb and Dumber To still get the fans from back then to watch it, or have they grown out of that sort of humor?
Jim Carrey plays again the role of Lloyd Christmas and he has somehow not aged at all. Jeff Daniels shows some wear comprising the role of Harry Dunne again.
The trailer opens with an epic prank of Lloyd Christmas. He pretended to be in vegetative state for 20 years. Dumb and Dumber To will open in theaters on November 14. Watch the trailer now.

ABSTRACT: Estrogen has important physiological effects on the growth and function of hormone-dependent tissues, and the link between estrogen and breast cancer has been deciphered at the end of the 20(th) century. Tamoxifen, one of the first generation selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), has been the gold standard of first-line therapeutic drugs for all stages of estrogen-dependent breast cancer and has been found to reduce the incidence of breast cancer in high-risk pre- and postmenopausal women. Raloxifene, a second-generation SERM, was recently approved by FDA to decrease the risk of invasive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. During these years, many other novel types of SERAMs are being studied. This review highlights their recent advances. The discovery of selective estrogen receptor alpha modulators (SERAMs) and the latest information about their clinical and preclinical trials will be introduced intensively.

Umoja Charambe Group
This will be Matilda's fourth loan with Tujijenge Tanzania. Matilda used her previous loans to buy a piece of land and to buy saucers and pans. These loans have now been successfully repaid. Matilda's business is running smoothly, but she is unable to make any larger purchases for her apartment. Matilda is therefore seeking another loan in order to buy a television, furniture, and a radio for her home. Matilda's dream is to one day build her own house.
Matilda will share this loan with her loan group Umoja Charambe, which is made up of sixteen members. The members of the group will hold each other accountable for repaying the loan.
In the picture, Matilda can be seen first on the left in the front row, wearing brown and white.
Additional Information
About Tujijenge TanzaniaThis loan is administered by Tujijenge Tanzania, which was founded in 2006. It has operations in Dar es Salaam, the coastal region, and the Lake Victoria region. The organization aims to reach out to micro entrepreneurs and provide them with financial and social intermediation services because capital is one of the major barriers to development and success for micro-enterprise initiatives in Tanzania.
For more information on Tujijenge Tanzania, please visit its partner page, or join its lending team.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

|"Occasionally [Cash] lets his pompadour down, and then the stories sing."
From the Publisher
|As an emeritus member of both the Country Music and Rock & Roll Halls of Fame and with over 100 hits to his credit, Johnny Cash is a Nashville phenomenon. In this autobiography, he offers a complex self-portrait, reflecting on his life's most significant events. He speaks frankly about a variety of personal issues--including his spirituality, amphetamine addiction, and negative experiences in the cutthroat music industry. Expressing humility at his own fame, he praises other stars that he has met, like Willie Nelson, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, and Jerry Lee Lewis.
|Editors Note
|He was the "Man in Black," a country music legend, and the quintessential American troubadour. He was an icon of rugged individualism who had been to hell and back, telling the tale as never before. In his unforgettable autobiography, Johnny Cash tells the truth about the highs and lows, the struggles and hard-won triumphs, and the people who shaped him.In his own words, Cash set the record straight -- and dispelled a few myths -- as he looked unsparingly at his remarkable life: from the joys of his boyhood in Dyess, Arkansas to superstardom in Nashville, Tennessee, the road of Cash's life has been anything but smooth. Cash writes of the thrill of playing with Elvis, the comfort of praying with Billy Graham; of his battles with addiction and of the devotion of his wife, June; of his gratitude for life, and of his thoughts on what the afterlife may bring. Here, too, are the friends of a lifetime, including Willie Nelson, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, and Kris Kristofferson. As powerful and memorable as one of his classic songs, Cash is filled with the candor, wit, and wisdom of a man who truly "walked the line."
|Annotation 2
|With an introduction that includes giving thanks for a pair of comfortable shoes, as only someone who spent the first 15 years of his life mostly barefoot could, the autobiography of the late Johnny Cash is, like his music, simple and eloquent. Discovering country music via Roy Acuff and the Louvin Brothers, among others, he became part of the immortal Sun Records stable of musicians that also included Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins; he recounts his initial meeting with legendary Sun Studios owner and producer Sam Phillips, his shaky attempts at recording his debut single (it took over 30 takes), his thrill at performing his first hit "Cry, Cry, Cry" on the LOUISIANA HAYRIDE radio show, and his first Cadillac. He's also candid about his amphetamine and alcohol addiction, admitting the constant conflict between his darker impulses and his long-standing religious convictions. Throughout, Cash leaves detached analysis and precise recounting of minute detail to music scholars; but what is lost here in objectivity is gained in a series of remarkable vignettes steeped in country music history, all told through the filter of co-author Patrick Carr's superb prose recreation of the singer's trademark laconic, baritone drawl.

Russian search engine Yandex has changed the 10 blue links experience for its users. Starting Monday, Yandex unveiled a new experience, with a new twist on the infinite scrolling concept.
At the bottom of each set of 10 results is a button labeled "10 more answers". While this retrieves the next 10 search results, it keeps the original 10 and continues on. This allows users to scroll up and down as the page grows with more results.
Yandex's search box also stays at the top of the redrawn page, persisting while you scroll. As opposed to going to a new page, the infinite scroll feature allows Yandex users to simply add 10 more results to the page they are currently viewing. Numerical pagination also exists for those who prefer to only see 10 results, regardless of page.
Speaking to Search Engine Watch this week, Nadya Kuprina, PR Manager at Yandex, noted the change was designed to facilitate the searching experience for users.
"According to our stats, one-third of our users browse through our search results pages at least once a week," Kuprina said. "About 20 percent of these users go back to the pages they have already seen, with 10 percent of these users viewing up to 10 pages."
Clearly Yandex users have more patience to search through multiple pages of results than typical U.S. searchers do. Yandex owns nearly two-thirds of all search traffic in Russia, but has yet to make solid head roads into the U.S. search share.
Currently, the infinite scroll feature is only available on the yandex.ru site. Yandex plans to implement the infinite scroll function internationally, but wouldn't reveal when. Google, meanwhile, continues infinite scrolling tests of their own. Pennsylvania-based DuckDuckGo is currently the only other search engine to use the infinite scroll interface.

Since graduating Yale's MFA program in 2001, the painter Kehinde Wiley has made no secret of his black identity. For much of the last decade, his work has been boldly Afro-centric, and in a distinctly subversive way. He re-appropriates the regal portrait form of the Old Masters. But instead of casting European aristocrats as his subjects, he paints black urban youth; hoodies and baggie jeans are what we see, not breeches and silk stockings. In the backdrop, Wiley adds vibrant colors with arresting geometric patterns, adding ever more visual pop to these already pungent portraits.
Wiley is only 34, but already his trademark style is beginning to tire. So when he announced not long ago that he would travel the world — to China, Brazil, India and … Israel — many were giddy with anticipation, and perhaps relieved that he wasn't going back to the same artistic well again.
He titled this global series "World Stage," and began showing works from it in 2007. But when word spread about the Israel portraits in particular, and the Jewish Museum acted quickly. It purchased one painting, titled "Alios Itzhak," of a Jewish Israeli, and began to angle for a future, full-length show. Now, on March 9, the museum will officially open "Kehinde Wiley / The World Stage: Israel," which features 10 portraits Wiley has made, some of them only recently completed, of a diverse set of Israelis—Ashkenazi Jews, Arab Israelis, Ethiopians.
Behind the subjects, he's painted visual motifs befitting their ethnic origins; arabesque patterns adorn the portraits of Arab Israelis, for instance, and patterns that mimic Jewish paper-cuts, a form of folk-art, are found in portraits of Eastern European Jews. In addition to the 10 Israeli portraits, which are enormous — some of them six-by-eight feet — four other portraits will be on view. Wiley has also been asked to take on an unofficial curatorial role regarding the objects to be displayed with his painting; he made selections among the traditional Jewish paper cuts and ceremonial objects from The Jewish Museum's exhaustive permanent collection. Many of those objects and patterns are echoed in Wiley's portraits, tying the show together in what should be one of the art season's highlights.
"Kehinde Wiley / The World Stage: Israel" will is on view at The Jewish Museum from March 9 to July 29.

What is the problem with unions funding the LP?(17 Posts)
Genuine question.
Why do people see it as a negative that Labour is partially funded by and partially controlled by the unions ( plus Fabians etc) as opposed to individual rich people? To me it is a massive positive that the funding comes from little amounts from lots of working people (and, to me, pretty obvious n the name of the party...)
Is there an actual reason, or Only in the kind of ideological way? I just think I'm missing something...
I don't see it as a problem. Where I have a problem at the moment is that Labour shoved masses of money to the unions. There's the Union Modernisation Fund, which is taxpayers' money going to the unions to 'help them modernise'. Why should taxpayers pay for that? It's something on the order of £6 million a year.
Then there are the 'Pilgrims'. These are public sector employees who work, full-time as union reps. They are paid for by the taxpayer, and the taxpayer then has to pay for employees to replace those union reps. The costs are immense. In Whitehall alone £36 million a year goes on Pilgrims. Every council has them, every PCT has them, every department has them.
So all that money's paying for the unions, who then give that money to Labour. It's basically just Labour getting the taxpayer to pay for them, and that makes me very cross. It's corruption.
It's a fuss over nothing and I wish people would stop whingeing. To me they expose their pettiness and ignorance.
I don't complain about the large number of companies that fund the Conservatives. It would make life difficult for me but I could boycott them if I really wanted.
I don't even get that exercised whenever Conservative donors are shown to have very tentative links with the UK. If they're within rules, they're within the rules.
I'm in favour of union support for the Labour Party, being a union member, a Labour voter and someone who knows about the foundation of the Labour Party.
Even if I wasn't in favour I'd weigh up the benefits of union membership versus the particular policy I was opposed to. I did that in the mid-80s when my union decided to oppose the MP David Alton's Private Member's Bill seeking to curtail abortion rights.
I am in favour of abortion but was uneasy about my union taking that stance when other union members might be opposed and feel compromised about membership. I decided it was better for me to continue and that Alton's assault on abortion law was more worrying than my union's opposition to.
What's the big deal? The money has to come from somewhere and like you said OP, the link is obvious.
I think it's to do with the influence that it is perceived to give to unions within the labor party. For example David was seen as more electable and a better candidate but Ed won because of the union vote - or at least that was the impression I got from the papers. Many people who approved of thatcher and how she 'broke' the unions wouldn't vote for someone who is perceived as under the thumb of the unions.
Perhaps it's also because unions are seen as big, nasty, demanding etc where as conservative doners are much more hidden - policy decided over a single malt after dinner type thing.
I may well be talking rubbish putting dd to sleep and bored but interested.
The only people who see it as a problem are rich Tory donors who think it's far too communist to have a party backed by a bunch of grubby workers rather then a nice rich individual.
Nothing, as long as it is not taxpayers cash (given to the Unions) being used and as long as there is no problem with big corporations funding the Conservative party. Two sides of the same coin.
In an ideal world none of the parties would get extra funding and they would have to survive on their own real world merits. Ho hum.
Unions are hardly representative of "grubby workers" nowadays, are they?
orwellian - not quite two sides of the same coin. The union levy is voluntary and democratic- individual members can opt out. Companies do not allow their shareholders to opt out of paying donations to the Tory (or any other) party. Or their employees, whose work makes the profits that are handed over by the bosses.
Before the unions, only the rich had political representation. By banding together in unions, ordinary people were able to put together the funds to participate in democracy; to create a political party that might represent their views, aims and objectives. The union movement was progressive and democratic and the Labour party was born from shared effort and a wish for progress and democracy. Quite different from the fat cats seeking favours from Tory politicians.
Of course it's not quite that simple, 100 years on. But the principle still stands.
Yes, edam. And I also believe the Union Modernisation Fund was abolished in this Govt's Bonfire of the Quangos in 2010 or 11 which didn't result in quite such a big conflagration because some of the organisations were quite handy and this govt would like to introduce a few of their own.
So if it was a problem, it no longer is one. Unless someone can correct me.
The TUC have put forward a defence of the Pilgrims that they smooth conditions between management and the workforce.
But again, if someone wants to cite evidence that they're a pernicious influence, then I'll listen to it.
In principle there's nothing wrong with unions funding the Labour party. Well no more than rich donors funding the Tories.
I suspect the 'problem' is a hangover from the late seventies where the loony unions of yesteryear effectively held the country to ransom.
That and a lot of people now think that unions are outdated and full of left wing idiots who want to do nothing but cause strikes for minor/petty reasons as some sort of political statement.
The biggest problem for Labour really is that because so much of their funding comes from the unions that it can mean they are stuck when they need to criticise them. Remember the beginning of the teachers strike? Most members of the public were opposed to it. But Labour couldn't say that without upsetting their donors.
But that's no different in my mind to the Tories being unable to criticise their biggest donors either.
I guess unions funding the LP is better than the American system in which only rich corporations and well funded lobby groups seem to have any sway.
I have no problem with any of this - provided that there is a change and Unions fund the Pilgrims (and any future modernisation programmed).
Yes, edam. And I also believe the Union Modernisation Fund was abolished in this Govt's Bonfire of the Quangos in 2010 or 11 which didn't result in quite such a big conflagration because some of the organisations were quite handy and this govt would like to introduce a few of their own.
So if it was a problem, it no longer is one. Unless someone can correct me.
It isn't a problem now, but it did funnel £60m or so to the unions, which they then gave to the Labour party to fight its elections.
The TUC have put forward a defence of the Pilgrims that they smooth conditions between management and the workforce.
But again, if someone wants to cite evidence that they're a pernicious influence, then I'll listen to it.
I haven't seen any objection to the role of the Pilgrim. What I've seen objections to is that the Pilgrim is paid for by the taxpayer. A representative of the workers should be paid by the workers themselves, not by the taxpayer.
The UMF is over now, unlike contributions paid to political parties by companies where I spend my money. Or, indeed their dealings in countries of whom I don't approve. But like I said, I could boycott them if it vexed me that much.
Good industrial relations could be said to be of benefit to the country seeing as industrial disputes between intransient employers and unions cost us all so much anguish and money.
And the objection about taxpayers' money funding Pilgrims is not dissimilar to the objections about companies having to provide union representatives time to do their union work.
As long as no one is taking the piss I don't have a problem with it. Like most people I want employers and employees to discuss things rationally and treat each other fairly before things reach a state where they affect my life.
In principle there's nothing wrong with unions funding the Labour party. Well no more than rich donors funding the Tories.
On the contrary, there's something much less wrong with unions funding the Labour party, as the Labour party members are more represenative of the population as a whole. They are workers who receive a wage - like the vast majority of the population.
Of course they will fund to fight their interests. However, their interests here largely co-incide with the population.
On the other hand, funding of the Tory party by Goldman Sachs is not likely to produce policies which are beneficial to the population as a whole.
I suspect the 'problem' is a hangover from the late seventies where the loony unions of yesteryear effectively held the country to ransom.
Uh huh. You realise the large corporate entities have 'held the country to ransom' ever since, right? How is threatening to completely move overseas unless corporation tax is lessened or unless the labour market is deregulated NOT 'holding the UK to ransom'?
That and a lot of people now think that unions are outdated and full of left wing idiots who want to do nothing but cause strikes for minor/petty reasons as some sort of political statement.
Yeah, unions sit around thinking about when they can strike to 'make a statement'. Even though they don't get paid during a strike. And even though it inconveniences the public. Absolutely right...
I hear what you are saying about companies threatening to leave being akin to holding the country to ransom and to a certain extent I agree with you. But the answer is not for UK to do anything stupid on its own. We need to act in unison with all the other western economies so that multinationals cannot divide and conquer.
And as for the unions, bear in mind that the union chiefs do get paid. The strikers don't (generally). So the chief's have no real skin in the game.
There must be many employees that find themselves in a conflict of interest i.e not supporting the Labour Party but wanting to be represented by a union. They have no choice where their fees go.
Yes, you do have a choice. When you join union you have to choose whether or not to contribute to the affiliated political fund - if you don't then your union dues do not go towards funding the Labour Party.
Some of the most successful and forward-thinking unions are not affiliated to the Labour Party and stopped funding them years ago, e.g. PCS and RMT.
I imagine lots of Tesco workers don't want the profits they have worked hard to create to be handed over to the Conservative Party, but hey, private enterprise is all about choice, except for those who can't buy any.

text: What ever happen to the customer service there was at Safeway 27 years ago were the staff would greet the customer with a friendly smile and hi my name is? How are you today? How do I know this? My girlfriend at the time worked at Safeway Lalor and become checkout chick of the year and it was always drummed into them to treat the customer this way. Today I shopped at Safeway Craigieburn it was a small red basket of goods 3x 1.25L DRK and 1x 6pack Fusion power razer blades but I had to get Smokes and liquor so I payed at the liquor department that came to $69.93 to save myself time instead of using two checkouts. The staff member was very unfriendly and when she told - not asked but told - me to swipe my card I did but when she told to press enter I did not hear her so she yelled at me to press enter and she pressed it herself. I felt very upset in the way I was treated by her and it was not the fist time I had to be served by her the last time was just as bad.

in this shot i don't like the shadows on your face...and your shirt is over exposed
Lovely shadow. You have devastating gaze when you want to.
Aww thanks Terry
Nice composition, love the mood ))
Thank you so much This shot was actually a total fluke - I was just testing the focus for another idea I had in mind, turned out to be not so bad
that's really nice, but..sad in some way..
It does have a bit of a forlorn feeling to it, doesn't it?!
Pretty B&W!

Notes from a First Year Preacher
Preacher to Preacher: An Interview with Rev. Dr. Mark Labberton
Where are the sticking points? What's the main point? What are the qualifiers and tensions? Sift, sift, sift, sift. Discern. Pray. Discern. Pray. Until finally it begins to feel that this is what the sermon is about in one or two statements and what do I most want people to remember about this text in their lives, in the world? Am I calling them to action? I try to get out of the way of the text and let it drive what's happening. So, I am not driving for application but to bring the text home. Application often means something very tangible and specific, but that is seldom the way the Bible works. It seems reductionist. I am looking for character and life and transformation, but making clear that the evidence for that internal work will be external work. My bigger purpose is that people get a larger sense for the heart of God.
What is the future of preaching?
There is a lot of experimentation going on but a lot of it is a chasing technique. If people tweet on the screen behind me or my sermon is more conversational, then that is the latest thing. Any of that, all of that, none of that is fine. We live in a visually demanding and pragmatic age. We want things to happen and we want to respond immediately. The tangibility of new forms is good because people want to be in conversation.
But I think the crisis is not about form, but content. Do we actually believe God's Word is exceptional to our own? I think that is the bigger question that must be wrestled with. Do we believe God has a truer and more authoritative voice? And some of the new techniques are about legitimate genuine incarnationalism and some of it is about saying I don't want to hear someone else's voice as much as I want to hear my own. There is a scandal about preaching that is unfortunately wedded to the patriarchal idea of a person in a robe in a pulpit and talking down to "You people," but at its truest, that line of authority is about God's authority that is meant to redefine everything else. And our crisis in the church is not being able to acknowledge and submit to God's authority. That conversation supersedes the debates about techniques and questions about technology and tweeting.
Preaching has gone in and out of fashion over the centuries, but the things that keeps bringing it around is how do you make an assertion of a revelatory word over and against all other words, as Barth saw it. So preaching is an attempt to reflect a belief in a monotheistic God come in flesh in one person. How do you communicate that? A faint parallel is one person standing in front of community and declaring that word. There is something about acknowledging the incarnational reality of Christ that requires it. It's not just about the collective community, there is always more than that, there is another and different word to which our community bears witness.
