Override Job Name and Write Terminal Output to Disk (C#)

Introduction

Welcome to this step-by-step guide on using Aspose.TeX for .NET to override job names and write terminal output to disk in the C# programming language. Aspose.TeX for .NET is a powerful library that allows you to seamlessly work with TeX files, and in this tutorial, we will focus on a specific task: overriding job names and capturing terminal output.

Prerequisites

Before we dive into the tutorial, make sure you have the following prerequisites in place:

  • Aspose.TeX for .NET Library: Ensure that you have the Aspose.TeX for .NET library installed. You can download it from the Aspose.TeX website.

  • .NET Development Environment: Have a working .NET development environment, including an integrated development environment (IDE) such as Visual Studio.

  • Basic C# Knowledge: Familiarize yourself with the basics of the C# programming language.

  • Input and Output Directories: Prepare the input and output directories for your TeX files.

Import Namespaces

In your C# code, make sure to include the necessary namespaces to access the Aspose.TeX functionalities:

using Aspose.TeX.IO;
using Aspose.TeX.Presentation.Xps;

Step 1: Create Conversion Options

TeXOptions options = TeXOptions.ConsoleAppOptions(TeXConfig.ObjectTeX());

Create TeXOptions with ConsoleAppOptions, specifying ObjectTeX as the TeXConfig.

Step 2: Specify Job Name

options.JobName = "overridden-job-name";

Specify the job name to override the default name.

Step 3: Specify Input Working Directory

options.InputWorkingDirectory = new InputFileSystemDirectory("Your Input Directory");

Set the input working directory for your TeX files.

Step 4: Specify Output Working Directory

options.OutputWorkingDirectory = new OutputFileSystemDirectory("Your Output Directory");

Define the output working directory to save the processed TeX files.

Step 5: Write Terminal Output to Disk

options.TerminalOut = new OutputFileTerminal(options.OutputWorkingDirectory);

Configure the terminal output to be written to a file in the output directory.

Step 6: Run the Job

TeXJob job = new TeXJob("hello-world", new XpsDevice(), options);
job.Run();

Create a TeXJob, specifying a job name, output device (XpsDevice), and options. Finally, run the job.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You’ve successfully learned how to override job names and write terminal output to disk using Aspose.TeX for .NET in C#. This capability is valuable for managing your TeX processing tasks efficiently.
