    Performance counter index

    Hello everyone,


    How to get the performance counter index and name relationship? Is there a table?

    (like integer 180 for working set counter)

    I can not find from MSDN,

    thanks in advance,
    George

    I guess you can call it a table. It's actually a registry key with a type of REG_MULTI_SZ, which IMHO can be construed as a table.
    Code:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib\LangId
    Where LangId is 009 for U.S. English. This is the key that the function references.

    Cool, BobS0327!


    It works for Windows Server 2003 machine! But it does not work my another new Windows Vista machine. The error message when open Perflib folder is,

    --------------------
    can not open Perflib, access denied, error access private key for unknown reason.
    --------------------

    Any ideas?
