How to obtain list of running processes

hi all,
can someone point me to the documentation that can help me obtain a list of currently running processes. i want to write a java program that can scan through this list to see if certain processes are currently running.
thanks!

My answer works fine in unix systems. I try to look for processes that are owned by user "nobody"
Try this and let me know if you got the answer
     psProc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/bin/ps -ef");
          psBr = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(psProc.getInputStream()));
          while( (newline = psBr.readLine()) != null) {
          strBuffer.append(newline + " ");
          strToken = new StringTokenizer(strBuffer.toString()," \t");
          while(strToken.hasMoreTokens()) {
          tok = strToken.nextToken();
          if (tok.startsWith("nobody")) {
               //this is the process you want
          }

How to automate the Daily running process

Here is the senario
There are 24 data transfer packages which loads data into SQL Server 2008R2 everyday using a loading tool. There is only one log table is there which shows only package name and the thru date where
package got loaded into Database
The package names in log table and package names in loading tool have somewhat different naming format.
Every day I have to monitor the loading tool to see exactly on which date the packages getting data. (note that out of 25 packages 4 packages always gave t-1 date i.e. yesterday as per business
logic
Now I want to automate this process and set an SSRS mail alert for successful execution of packages as per business dates so how can I do that?
Thank you in advance

Ok for this requirement you can do like below
1. Add custom logging in your packages using EVent Handlers to log the execution details along with package name etc to your custom logging table
http://consultingblogs.emc.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/06/11/SSIS_3A00_-Custom-Logging-Using-Event-Handlers.aspx
2. Create a SSRS report which would pull data from this log table you created and show execution data for packages for the required date range
3. Add a data driven sunscription in SSRS to deliver the above report through email to your required distribution list

How to Obtain Listing of Crystal Reports History Limits

Post Author: djp
CA Forum: Other
Does anyone know of a way to extract a listing of the History Limits settings for all reports from the database?
I've looked throught he SDK documentation and I am unable to determine where that information is stored and how it could be extracted.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Yes and Yes. You can get the latest version of Crystal for Visual Studio here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824. Download the "Install Executable" for integration into VS - the others are for runtime installs depending on how you install your application.

How to obtain list of user ids base on licensedata assigned?

Hello all,
I would like to generate user list base on the licensedata assigned to the user ids (we want to know how many users for each of the license data we assigned to the users), how do i do that? Can please provide me a clear steps to perform the action mentioned? Your help/replies are very much appreciated!
Thank you.

wei how

Hi,
If you have maintained the contractual user type in SU01 for all users then you can go to usmm> user measurement there you will be able to see the user with the license type assigned.
If contractual user is not maintained in SU01 it will show as TEST user in default in usmm user measurement.

Can I get a List of all the running processes in the system using java ?

I want a complete list of all the Running processes currently in the system.
List of running processes is like, in MS Window environment while we presses ctrl + alt + del and we get a small window containing a list of all the running processes currently in system.
I hope somebody have done the same and will help me.
thanx.

Here is the sample code to get All running process in your system .

How to know exe is running and close the exe ?

I use launchExecutableEx() to run a exe,but before running ,I want to know if this exe is running,if running I will terminal it at first, which labwindows function can do it? I know TerminateExecutable() function,but it need a handle, i do not know the handle because the exe is running before run my program.

Not sure if all this is can really be helpful (I didn't tested it), but usinf some SDK functions you could:
List all running processes using EnumProcesses. Inside the SDK that comes with CVI you can search an example called "Enumerating all processes": this is the skeleton of this part of the job
Scan the list to obtain the process ID of your target executable, if running. You will need to know the exact name how the process appears in the list of active processes in the system: this can be difficult if the application is run under svchost or any other host process
Use OpenProcess and TerminateProcess to kill it: this is actually equivalent to terminating an application inside the task manager; it's a very rude method and the SDK lists all reasons why it should be used very rarely. In any case, if you feel this is safe for your environment it could be tempted
As I told you, this is only a framework for you to elaborate on: I never attempted all that. I just wanted to explain how I'd approach this job if I have to.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Monitoring the running process

hi all!
i am working on antispyware.
my problem is:
how to monitor the computer running processes from the attacking of any spyware/virus
if some one has sample code, plz send me
plz guide me in this regard, so i can proceed in my work.
best regards

Thanks.
That makes no sense. Especially given that listener handles the connect and then no longer is involved in the communication between client and database.
I would strongly suggest you check Metalink, or even open a service request. This sounds like it could be a memory leak. Do it now, while it is still possible - 9i goes into extended support in a few weeks and bug fixes will be difficult to arrange.

Getting a list of windows processes

Hi, in my java application I need to get a list of processes that Windows XP is running. I am currently using this code to get the list:
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("tasklist");
BufferedReader procInput = new BufferedReader(InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));The problem is that the tasklist command only seems to work in Windows XP professional edition, and not in the 'Home' or 'Media Center' editions. While most people are running pro, in the interest of compatibility I would like it to work with all versions of windows. I've rooted around in the API, but I can't find another way to get a list of running processes. Any ideas? Thank you

finally
Thanks.

friend
sqlldr is an application residing in the OS. procedure runs in the dbms engine.
you cannot run an os command directly from a procedure or a function or a package .
If you want to do so you need to use either a daemon process created by a PRO*C program
or a JAVA stored procedure to do so.
just refer to previous question forums, you can find the solution. Somebody has already given a solution using
java to run an OS command . check it out

If he knows how to change the "niceness" of a process, he has to know how to list them.
Since nice is not in the standard listing, it could be normal to not remember the right option.
But he should have known how to use man, on the other hand..

Hey Ermanno, new friend...

In answer to a question like mine.. You copy,paste and GO, don't you?
I Got results that looked right/reasonable. The Command looked right, HAD 'nice' in it, so I naturally assumed (wrongly,of course) that 'nice' was expected in the results (silly me ) and so posted back rather than going for man (gotta admit, man is often scarcely comprehensible -I think the system needs a SUPERman - more like 'Help - and more helpful than 'Help... man is more a 'memory jogger' than anything else IMNSHO
You're just trying to get outa admitting that it woulda been just as easy to have given me:
ps aux -O nice

But thank you very kindly for the assistance.
+(Just FYI: wikip says "...A niceness of −20 is the highest priority and *19 is the lowest* priority. ...".+ Further: +"...Thus a process run with nice +15 will receive 1/4 of the CPU time allocated to a normal-priority process: (20-15)/(20-0)=1/4. *On the BSD 4.x scheduler, on the other hand, the ratio in the same example is about ten to one.....*"+ Wonder what it is on Mac/Darwin ...

You need to run abs before using the above line. Penguin's method uses the abs tree. If you don't have an up-to-date tree, your list will be inexact.

How to check a Application/Process Running using Labwindows

Hi,
How can I check whether a Process or an Application is running or not using CVI?
I used to try this in Labview, and for check App, this is a VI in NI's website. But I have no idear about using CVI to do this.
And also, how can I check whether a folder is open or using? Because I want to rename foder in my code, if it's open(maybe some file in the folder are open), the rename action will go wrong.
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Maybe you can use some command in windows (provided by Microsoft) to get the tasks in task mgr.
I have searched for you and think the task list command can meet your requirement. Have a try...

Multiple crashes fixed by turning off hardware and Flash acceleration; very slow now. Takes five seconds to exit and still listed as a running process

A workaround was suggested by a member of the community to turn off both hardware and Flash acceleration. It worked fine (no crashes since), but runs very slowly. In particular, takes five seconds to exit and is often still listed as a running process. Very slow in connecting to Web pages, and very slow loading them because of the graphics. Very slow in loading video. I expected slower responses, but this is REALLY slow. I'm running 64-bit Windows 7 and an Nvidia GE Force 7800 graphics card with all the drivers updated and the plugins for Firefox mostly set on "ask to activate". Should I expect this much reduction in performance when the workaround I mentioned was put into place? If so, it's half a loaf at best. The only thing questionable is that I have two Youtube downloaders that I am trying, but I made the assumption that these were only applied when you downloaded something from Youtube.

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes": do not clear the Cookies
If you clear cookies then Firefox will also try to remove cookies created by plugins and that requires to start plugin-container processes that can slow down closing Firefox.
Instead let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.
