Processexists using full path + parameters?


Recommended Posts

Hello.

How can I check if a process with specific command line (full exec path + parameters) already running?

i.e.

"C:\Windows\sytem32\NOTEPAD.EXE" C:\test.txt

Found this topic, but it only checks for full path of executable, not parameters.

Thank you.

$exist = 0
 $oWMI = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & @ComputerName & "\root\CIMV2")
 $oProcesses = $oWMI.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process", "WQL", 0x30)
For $oProcess In $oProcesses
    If ($oProcess.Name = "Notepad.exe" And StringInStr($oProcess.CommandLine, "C:\test.txt")) Then $exist = 1
Next
MsgBox(64+262144, Default, "Process " & ($exist?"already":"not") & " running.",0)

For $test = -2 To 5
    ConsoleWrite("$test=" & $test & " --> " & ($test?"true":"false") & @CRLF)
Next
$test=-2 --> true
$test=-1 --> true
$test=0 --> false
$test=1 --> true
$test=2 --> true
$test=3 --> true
$test=4 --> true
$test=5 --> true

Even knowing this by your post I cannot find anything in the help file System covering this way to "Switch" between two optional strings using a variables value state TRUE | FALSE:blink:

Look in the help file for Ternary operator for help with the "?:" conditional testing.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Very nice option to do if/then/else operations in just one tiny line!

Now it noticed, that it's mentioned "related --> Ternary" in the help file System for  if/then/else

Tx!
