C#: Hide Password in Console.

Hie friends, consider a situation where you are developing a console login application.In this application user enters his Username and password.

Username: Admin 

Password: ******* (Hidden Pasword)

Above is the example of secure login. But if you are developing this application in c# console, C# doesn't have such method which could hide you password.

Here is the code through which you can ask user to input a string secretly.

Snippet 1:

private string GetPassword()
        {
            string Password = "";
            ConsoleKeyInfo MyKey = Console.ReadKey(true);
            Console.Write("*");
            while (!(MyKey.Key == ConsoleKey.Enter))
            {
                Password += MyKey.KeyChar;
                MyKey = Console.ReadKey(true);
                if (MyKey.Key == ConsoleKey.Backspace)
                {
                    if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Password))
                    {
                        Console.Write("\b");
                        Password.Substring(0, Password.Length - 1);
                    }
                }
                if (MyKey.Key != ConsoleKey.Backspace && MyKey.Key != ConsoleKey.Enter)
                {
                    Console.Write("*");
                }
            }
            return Password;
        } 

How to use in program?

Snippet:2

public void UserLogin()
        {
            string uname,pwd;
            Console.Write("Username: ");
            uname = Console.ReadLine();
            Console.Write("Password: ");
            pwd = GetPassword();
        } 

Hope this could help you.
