Help needed


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

I just registered on this forum.
 

Well, as I see AutoIt fits my needs, but I need a little help over here. I'll try to explain as best as I can.

How it is possible to:

With AutoIt, get PID of process, then, save that PID as a label or whatever, then send %PID% to a program.

Definitely - Get PID from image name, then send THAT PID to program of which location is C:\someprogram.exe.

 

Yours,

thevalo

Hi, thevalo, welcome to the forum. Look at WinGetProcess in the help file to get a PID. Try out the example for yourself, and then if you have issues, please post your code and we will do our best to assist.

thevalo,

Look in the Help file - there is a good example on the ProcessExists page.

And could you please give your threads meaningful titles in future - everyone posting here needs help.

thevalo,

That snippet uses WinGetProcess which you have already said does not work for you. You have been told that ProcessExists is what you need - so look at that example in the Help file.

Is it really that hard to read and understand?

Return Value

Success: the PID of the process.
Failure: 0 if process does not exist.

i would fail to understand if i was new xD

ProcessExists("somefile.exe") returns the pid, so you need to capture that some where, try a consolewrite, msgbox, or a $variable maybe

tip: search in help file for consolewrite, msgbox, variables and ProcessExists
