how to know if a process is not responding?

[ShadoWarrior]

is there a way i can tell if a *.exe app is "not responding" in windows?

maybe something related with "ProcessGetStats"

Your *.exe app or any *.exe app?

If _NotResponding("TITLE HERE", "TEXT HERE[OPTIONAL]", 1) Then; The last parameter indicates whether you want to close the hung app or not.
    MsgBox(0,"", "Hung Application, closing app now.")
Else
    MsgBox(0,"", "Application running as intended.")
EndIf

Func _NotResponding($title, $text, $closeIfHung = 0)
    $hWnd = WinGetHandle($title, $text)
    If $hWnd == "" Then
    MsgBox(0,"Error","Could not find window")
    Exit
    EndIf
    $retArr = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "IsHungAppWindow", "hwnd", $hWnd)
    If @error == 0 Then
    If $retArr[0] == 1 Then
    If $closeIfHung Then
    ProcessClose(WinGetProcess($title, $text))
    EndIf
    Return 1
    EndIf
    Else
    Return 0
    EndIf
EndFunc

Other than the obvious that this program closes a hung app, maybe an elaboration on it
