ES Console Process Engine (Business)

ES Console Process Engine is a pure Java component that allows controlled execution of a console process (non GUI program). By precisely automating the control of legacy (or new for that matter) console applications, user intervention is no longer required. All output from the program is logged to a file for monitoring purposes. Console processes have 3 standard streams. They are called input, output, and error. The engine monitors the output stream by parsing the data and looking for certain values. Once these values are found, the engine has the option to write values to the input stream, simulating user intervention. Once a value is fed to the input stream, it is possible to look for totally new output values to continue the input feeding. Of course, the supplying of values to standard input is only optional. The engine can simply be used to run a console process that writes to standard output, but provide logging to a file. Also has ability to automatically capture user input on first execution as the user types. The ES Console Process Engine even has the ability to execute standard GUI applications and log/process standard output messages inside DLL's and libraries.
