.NET Unicode use is not a problem in Windows, but is functionally defunct with .NET, for all or most .NET versions combined with OS (I did not check all of them). You can setup encoding, but it will throw exceptions, and so on. I cannot explain it; it looks like a big .NET defect. If you want Unicode, create your own emulation of console.

I just wanted to say, use some .NET UI, where you can use text box for user input, text box or list box for output, and so on.

You may "have to" whatever you want, but it does not mean you can. Then what, do nothing? :-)

i try to compile code on runtime which contain urdu in it.

If you successfully compile some code, it doesn't mean it will work.
Listen for a good friendly advice: either work in English, or develop real UI. Don't waste your time.

You will easily get everything, but not in console.

Solution 1

Console output is usually ASCII with a code page and does not support ligature mappings for right to left languages or even some Chinese settings, like graphical based operating systems (that you must do yourself).
