David,
It doesn't work anyway on Windows 7:
C:\bin>dir killer.exe
Volume in drive C is Win7
Volume Serial Number is D25E-50D5
Directory of C:\bin
04/12/2007 05:08 PM 57,344 killer.exe
1 File(s) 57,344 bytes
0 Dir(s) 2,643,935,232 bytes free
C:\bin>attrib killer.exe
A C:\bin\killer.exe
*C:\bin>killer rxapi*
*The process "rxapi.exe" was not found.*
C:\bin>
As for why you can't see it from the command line, it could be Windows
trying to protect you from yourself.
You can use attrib to make sure it is not hidden or system. You can set
the DIRCMD env variable to make sure things show:
C:\bin>set DIRCMD
DIRCMD=/A/O:G/O:N
The /A is All. The /O is order and they are just my preference. G is
directories first, N is alphabetical by name.
You could download the SysInternals stuff. Their pskill seems to work okay:
C:\bin>pskill /?
PsKill v1.12 - Terminates processes on local or remote systems
Copyright (C) 1999-2005 Mark Russinovich
Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
Usage: pskill [-t] [\\computer [-u username [-p password]]] <process ID |
name>
-t Kill the process and its descendants.
-u Specifies optional user name for login to
remote computer.
-p Specifies optional password for user name. If you omit this
you will be prompted to enter a hidden password.
C:\bin>pskill rxapi
PsKill v1.12 - Terminates processes on local or remote systems
Copyright (C) 1999-2005 Mark Russinovich
Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
Process rxapi killed.
C:\bin>
Go to the website listed to get it. The utilities are free.
We could change the build to use pskill instead of killer and just say it
is a condition of building on Windows, just like NSIS is a condition of
packaging on Windows.
