hey guys
i want to write a program like process explorer. but i have problem to find some of the functions.
in the process explorer we can find out cpu and memory usage, username and some other information about each process.
here is my question, what is the function for cpu usage,memory usage and user name of a process?
It depends on what operating system you are using.
1. Get rid of gets(). Never ever ever use it again. Replace it with fgets() and use that instead.
2. Get rid of void main and replace it with int main(void) and return 0 at the end of the function.
3. Get rid of conio.h and other antiquated DOS crap headers.
4. Don't cast the return value of malloc, even if you always always always make sure that stdlib.h is included.
On Linux/UNIX, simply call system with ps - e. Pipe the output to a temporary file, and open it to get the data you want. You can do it more nicely with popen().Originally Posted by desimoos
