Loading a Process

Im working on a prog that basically just runs another program and waits for it to end, so far this is what i got:

Code:

---

void LoadProgram(char *sProgramPath)
{
        STARTUPINFO startupInfo = {0};
        PROCESS_INFORMATION processInfo;
       
        CreateProcess(NULL, sProgramPath, NULL, NULL, FALSE, 0, NULL, NULL, &startupInfo, &processinfo);

        while (process running = true)
                Sleep(100);

        CloseHandle(processinfo.hThread);
        CloseHandle(processinfo.hProcess);
}

---

Thats about all i could figure out, i was wondering, how could i check to see once the process has ended? so for example, i load notepad using the above function, then the function only returns once the user has exited notepad...

Thanks in advance

Here is how you would wait for the process to end:

Code:

---

WaitForSingleObject(processinfo.hProcess,INFINITE);

---

Call that function right after you create the process, and get rid of that while loop you have.

You must provide the size of the STARTUPINFO struct before use.

Code:

---

startupInfo.cb = sizeof(startupInfo);

thanks for the quick replies guyz
