How to get process name to call a function

[AlexFing17]

Please what am i doing wrong here.\

I want my program to call a function with the process name i write in the script is the same as the name in process list. if is the same name then it gives a message , if not then it gives a message that it is not.

 

I will compile it and save it as test.exe

 

if the process name in the script should be the name running in process list then it tells me "the name matches" if not then it tells me "the name doesnt math"

 

please any help?

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <Process.au3>


Local $iPid = WinGetProcess("test.exe", "")

Local $sName = _ProcessGetName($iPid)

if $sName then
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL,"Box", "The name match the process name" )
Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL,"Box", "The name doesnt match the process name" )
endif

So does your test.exe have a window and is the title named test.exe?  Can you post the test.au3 file?

#Include <Process.au3>
Instance_Check()

Func Instance_Check()
    Local $PROCESS_LIST = ProcessList('SomeProcess.exe')
    For $i = 1 To $PROCESS_LIST[0][0]
        ConsoleWrite($PROCESS_LIST[$i][0] & ' [' & $PROCESS_LIST[$i][1] & ']' & @CRLF)
    Next
EndFunc

Result:
SomeProcess.exe [PID]

$PROCESS_LIST[$i][0] ; This returns the process name *.exe
$PROCESS_LIST[$i][1] ; This returns the process ID

 

Example use:

#Include <Process.au3>
Instance_Check()

Func Instance_Check()
    Local $PROCESS_LIST = ProcessList('Chrome.exe')
    For $i = 1 To $PROCESS_LIST[0][0]
        ConsoleWrite($PROCESS_LIST[$i][0] & ' [' & $PROCESS_LIST[$i][1] & ']' & @CRLF)
        If $PROCESS_LIST[$i][0] = 'Chrome.exe' Then
            ExitLoop
        Else
            ContinueLoop
        Endif
    Next

    Other_Func()
EndFunc

Func Other_Func()
    ConsoleWrite('Process Found!' & @CRLF)
EndFunc

Result:

chrome.exe [54524]
Process Found!
