Redirect CMD.exe output to a pipe

Can I use CreateProcess (or ShellExecute, or any other means of invoking cmd.exe to run a batch script) and have all output redirected to a pipe owned by my process? How do I give the child cmd.exe process a handle to one of the pipe endpoints? Is it even possible to use a pipe in this way?

(Googling for variations on the terms "cmd.exe" and "pipes" is nothin开发者_开发问答g but redirecting output to another program using the |(pipe) character)

Here's how you would do it with .NET: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.processstartinfo.redirectstandardoutput.aspx

And for C/C++: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682499(v=VS.85).aspx

Probably this will help... it is in VB.NET but it shouldn't be hard to change it to C#...
