Thread: compiler setting c++ so .exe runs at low priority

hello,

i m trying to have the compiled .exe program always run automatically at a low priority level (without going every time to the windows task manager).

i m using msvc++ .net, and i was wondering how/where to set this priority option in the compiler.

thanks!

You have to do it via code.

Code:

#include <windows.h>
SetPriorityClass( GetCurrentProcess(), IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS );

that worked immediately, great help!
thanks a lot,
