I thought I would try using ps with code like the one listed below.
headers for the process list are reported correctly but not much else.
When you mentioned accessing /proc directly, did you have something
else (other than ps) in mind?
Thanks.
Alex Donnini
private void getProcessList()
{
System.out.println("retrieving list of running processes via --
ps -e -- command");
try
{
processList = new ArrayList<String>();
String line;
java.lang.Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("ps -e");
BufferedReader input =
new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println("running process - "+line); //<--
Parse data here.
processList.add(line);
}
input.close();
}
catch (Exception err)
{
err.printStackTrace();
}
