Getting process info in a program
Hi,
I am wondering if there is a way to find out in a C software program if a particular process is running without having to write a file. In the past, I have been using the system command to execute a pgrep and output the info to a file. Then the C program reads the file to make the determination, and the file is deleted. I have a request from my customer to find out this same info in the C program without writing a file. HP-UX has a pstat_getproc utility that would work, but this is not supported in most Unix variants. Is there some other way for a software program to detect if another process is running? Thanks, Herb Miller |
