How to stop a process after it was started with Process.Start

I want my program to run other programs, but I also want the User to be able to stop the running program from within my program. How do you keep track of what program Process.Start has run?
The Start(String...) or Start(StartInfo) methods of the Process class are functions that return a Process object that you can then use to manage the process that you started, for instance to stop it with .Kill.

How to format your disks...
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/partitioningtiger.html
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the Erase tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Highlight the drive, select Erase Tab, then Format type... MacOS Extended Journalled, select the Security Options button, choose Zero Out Data, Erase... after completion hopefully you'll be able to install.

How to Stop the process chain if it in the middle of the process?

Hi,
Is there anyway that i can stop the process chain if it is in the middle of the process already?
Raj

"Hi,
First and foremost let me advice you to be very careful while doing this.
You can start from SM37, find the process WID/PID then go to SM50 or SM51 and kill it. Once its done come back to RSMO and check the request, it should be red but again manually force to red and save by clicking on the total status button in the status tab. This shuld ensure that the process is killed properly.
The next step will be to go to targets that you were loading and remove the red requests from those targets.
Note: For source system loads you may have to check if the request is running in the source system and kill if needed and pull it again.
But for BW datamart delta loads u may have reset the datamarts in case u are going to pull the delta again.
Different Ways to stop process chain
1)SM37 -->Kill Job
2)SM50/sm66- ->Kill process
3)RSPC>Job Log>Make the process RED forecefully.
4)RSPC>Process chain> main Menu"Remove from Scheduling" OR
5)se37-->RSPC_API_CHAIN_INTERRUPT
give RFC BW system name(technical) and process chain name(technical)
Steps 1 -3 stops the chain running in process
Steps 4-5 stops the chain AFTER the current job which is running is completed as sucessful or Failure by nature.
Rationale - 4-5
This function will only remove the jobs from schedule, which did not yet run. It will not kill running jobs, as this may leave the system in an inconsistent state, moreover killing processes is possible for synchronous processes only anyhow. This means, that there will be no errors with interrupted chains, which on the other
hand means an interrupted chain is not restartable. So for a running chain this function is intended to be an emergency break only. You can use it, however, to remove a scheduled chain from schedule, such that it does not start except by your product.

Hi,
First and foremost let me advice you to be very careful while doing this.
For Rescheduling
RSPC> chain > Goto > Planning view and
click on Execution tab > select > Remove from Schedule and then in Maintain variant of start process reschedule for the day you require it to run.
For terminating active chain
You can start from SM37, find the process WID/PID then go to SM50 or SM51 and kill it. Once its done come back to RSMO and check the request, it should be red but again manually force to red and save by clicking on the total status button in the status tab. This shuld ensure that the process is killed properly.
The next step will be to go to targets that you were loading and remove the red requests from those targets.
Note: For source system loads you may have to check if the request is running in the source system and kill if needed and pull it again.
But for BW datamart delta loads u may have reset the datamarts in case u are going to pull the delta again.

Hello,

And that's just Mac Air. I would like to get an answer because it annoys me that it happens ...!
Nimrod

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

Hi- Iphone 5 wont charge using power cable or USB...I am using a genuine apple charger/cable..this started after I was prompted with new update for IOS 7.

Hi- My Iphone 5 wont charge using power cable or USB...I am using a genuine apple charger/cable..this started after I was prompted with new update for IOS 7 yesterday. My phone is dead and wouldnt power up ..have tried resetting using itunes but i doesnt detect the phone and..pressing sleep/home button doesnt do anything

Update
I guess that it just had a bad connecting port on the phone itself, no clue why it wouldn't work when plugged in both ways other than there is actually some differentiating between the two sides.

How to stop threads, process, streams when closing a (internal) JFrame?

Dear all,
I read a Javaworld article about Runtime.exec(), which will output the process outputs and error outputs to either a file or System.out. Now I want to practice it by outputing the process output/error to a Swing JTextArea. It works fine if the process ends successfully.
My problem is that I want to stop all the output threads and clear all the streams when user click close JFrame button before the process finished. The code is shown below. Note that this frame is poped up by a click from another main frame. ( it is not exiting the main Swing application). This happened when I want to kill a process when it is running.
I tried to implements a WindowListener and add
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) to the JFrame.
Inside this method I used process.destroy() and errorGobbler = null, outputGobbler = null, or outputGobbler.interrupt(), errorGobbler.interrupt(). But all these seems does not work. Sometimes thread was not stopped, sometimes process was not destroyed (because the stream was still print out something), sometimes the error stream was not successfully closed - by printing out interruptted by user error message.
How can I make sure all the underlying streams and threads, including the PrintStream in StreamGobbler class are closed?
Again this Frame could be a Dialog or InternalFrame, i.e, when I close the frame, the main frame does not exit!

    StreamGobbler(InputStream is, String type, OutputStream redirect, JTextArea out)
        this.is = is;
        this.type = type;
        this.os = redirect;
    public void run()
        try
            PrintWriter pw = null;
            if (os != null)
                pw = new PrintWriter(os);

Thread.interrupt() doesn't stop a thread. You'll have to read the API for more specifics. You could use something like interrupt to force interruption of the thread for the reason of checking the terminating case though. I believe you would want to use this in the case where operations can take a long time.
Setting your reference to the thread to be null won't stop the thread since it's running. You just lose your reference to it.
I believe once the thread stops running your streams will be closed, but possibly not cleanly. Someone who has more knowledge of threads might be able to answer this better, but I would generally say clean up after yourself especially if you are writting out data.

How to stop/cancel Process Chain in BI 7.0

Hi,
Could you tell me how to stop/cancel a process chain that hangs with status yellow or green in BI 7.0? There was an easy option to do it in 3.x, but I cannot find a similar option in 7.0.
What happens is that at random our process chains hang at a certain variant with either yellow or even green status and do not proceed further. What happens is that in a couple of hours another pchain run occurs and it executes fine. Then again at random (might be the same day or the next day) the process chain hangs again. I think that all those "hanged" pchains pile up in the queue, so that it cause other future pchains to hang as well at some point. So, is there anyway to stop/cancel these zombie process chains when it stops at a particular event RSPROCESS in BI 7?
Thank you,
AG

Hi Frank,
Thanks for your reply. I have a few questions.
1)SM37 -->Kill Job
We cannot do that because the job has already finished.
2)SM50/sm66- ->Kill process
There are no hanged processes to kill
3)RSPC>Job Log>Make the process RED forecefully
How do you do that exactly?
4)RSPC>Process chain> main Menu"Remove from Scheduling" OR
5)se37-->RSPC_API_CHAIN_INTERRUPT
give RFC BW system name(technical) and process chain name(technical) - we can do this, but what exactly would it accomplish. Would it remove the process chain from any runs in the future or also any hanged ones in the past? An how is this step different from #4?
Thank you,

How to stop a process in a process chain?

Hi
I've got a process chain that calls several processes. It's still running one of the processes but I want to stop the two that will run after (as it is now in the day time and they will impact on performance in our R3 system).
I've looked on SM37 but when I put in BI_* nothing comes up. Do anyone know how I can stop these processes from running before they start ?
Thanks in advance
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Just goto the process types that are supposed to run afterwards... and rt click select released job-> select the job and press shift + F6 (from scheduled state to release state)
If u observe in PC now after refreshing this step will not be green (grey meaning not scheduled to run)
similar for other.
thanks

Hi Virendra,
After start process , insert a node of abap program and insert program with following code .
Report zntest.
data : lt_attr like CASDAYATTr occurs 0 with header line.
CALL FUNCTION 'DAY_ATTRIBUTES_GET'
EXPORTING
   DATE_FROM                        = SY-DATUM
   LANGUAGE                         = SY-LANGU
TABLES
    DAY_ATTRIBUTES                   = Lt_ATTr.
write : / lt_Attr-WEEKDAY_L.
read table lt_attr index 1.
if lt_Attr-WEEKDAY = '3' . "3 Stands for 3rd day of week i.e. Wednesday
message 'Process chains not to be run on wednesday' type 'E'.
endif.
Make sure that this ABAP program is linked to other processes only on "Success",
Hope that helps.

How to stop refreshing jsp after a period of time

Dear all,
Anyone has idea of how to stop jsp page refreshing after I get result from Backend?
I am using META tag to do refreshing in jsp: HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="60
After I got the result from back end, say after there's a "status" bean property changed from "processing" to
"successful".The refreshing activity is disabled?Any good way to do that?

Why don't you use listener to listen to changed events within your application and set you refresh status flag up when changes occur
