How to handle outputs that alter the same line and remove lines while running a process?

Hello, I am trying to run a process in a C# program and the process output alters on the same line. Like, it shows percent, and then removes some lines and shows another line. Currently, using StandardOutput, I am not able to capture such scenarios. Is there any workaround to this? Thank you!

cancellation token to stop Console.ReadLine is only working on the first try

I have the following method I got from stackoverflow

async Task<string?> ReadLineAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
{
    var readTask = Task.Run(() => Console.ReadLine());
    await Task.WhenAny(readTask, Task.Delay(-1, cancellationToken));
    cancellationToken.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    return await readTask;
}

async Task<string?> ReadLineAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
{
    var readTask = Task.Run(() => Console.ReadLine());
    await Task.WhenAny(readTask, Task.Delay(-1, cancellationToken));
    cancellationToken.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    return await readTask;
}

I run it in a loop while passing it a cancellation token.. and the cancellation token is also in a loop, which means, I recreate it every time.. it works on the first try.. but after the recreation starts for the cancellation token, on await Task.WhenAny(readTask, Task.Delay(-1, cancellationToken)); cancellation token doesn't get to end first although it should have from the other concurrent task I manage to cancel the token. What could be a possible solution? Thank you!

when do I need to learn dotnet aspire?

I am trying to get into backend web dev with dotnet using asp.net core and the other tools. I was looking through the roadmap provided by Nick Chapsas (https://roadmap.sh/r?id=65d8624e66cd6d03d2d7efc9), and it put dotnet aspire before asp.net core basics. When I try to look into how I can learn dotnet aspire, they all are using some form of asp.net apis. So, is it necessary that I learn it first or let me do it after I get comfortable with asp.net core? Thank you!

On deserializing using Newtonsoft, I get default constructor required issue on mac but not on window

I am trying to use the ChatGPT nuget package <PackageReference Include="OpenAI" Version="1.11.0" /> which have to deserialize json for data processing. It works normally on windows, but on macos, I face the error below:

Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Unable to find a constructor to use for type OpenAl_API.EndpointBase+ApiErrorResponse. A class should either have a default constructor, one constructor with arguments or a constructor marked with the JsonConstructor attribute.

Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Unable to find a constructor to use for type OpenAl_API.EndpointBase+ApiErrorResponse. A class should either have a default constructor, one constructor with arguments or a constructor marked with the JsonConstructor attribute.

My target framework for windows is net8.0, and for macos, it is net8.0-macos. I have tried to switch to another ChatGPT package, but similar issue arises. Is there any fix for this issue? Thank you!

After publishing for microsoft windows too, it is having problem but I am not sure about that. But I am sure about the MacOS problem.
