[Frank Günther] | I use win32pdh and EnumObjectsItems ... to get pids for | application name.
| Has anyone a suggestion for implementing this in a different way? Well, assuming that all you want is a PID (or a list of them) for a given application name, you can do it with WMI. I don't know if it will cause the same kind of problems you saw above, but I don't see why it should: (uses wmi module from http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi.html) <code> import wmi c = wmi.WMI () for p in c.Win32_Process (Name="notepad.exe"): print p.ProcessId </code> TJG ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
