Pipe is readable only when WinSCP has finished
I use WinSCP as a part of a larger program. It calls WinSCP.com in such a manner:
To read the output, I use such an instruction...
The output appears on my end of pipe only after WinSCP has finished => the program cannot interact with WinSCP (it can only feed predefined scripts). Other programs (for example, cmd.exe) seem to be OK.
What to do? Maybe, wrong code?
