Javier,
The RInstanceCount plugin within the R:BASE Plugin Power Pack is
available to return the number of running sessions for a given
executable file.
Syntax:
PLUGIN RInstanceCount vResult|FileName.exe
Where:
vResult is the variable to return the integer value
FileName.exe is the actual name and extension of the file, preceding
with the full path
Notes:
Returned variable name and the value must be separated by a "|"
pipe character.
Example:
Returns the total instances/sessions of RBGX5E.EXE. The variable
vRBGX5ESessions will return the INTEGER value of RBGX5E.EXE sessions
running on that particular workstation/server.
PLUGIN RInstanceCount vRBGX5ESessions|C:\RBTI\RBGX5E\RBGX5E.EXE

I have a situation where I use an external application that runs
performance models and the results are stored on an external database.
I am SCONNECTed to the external database and I have a form that is
used to generate reports from the external database.
I start the form as an MDI form and then LAUNCH the external
application so they run side bay side; so far so good.
Now, to exit the process I need to close the external application
and the MDI form individually. I would like to have a way to close
both processes in one step
What I need is a way to monitor when the external application is
closed and then close the MDI form
If I close the MDI form first, I can always use the DOS/Windows
Taskkill command from a .BAT file and force the external application
to close. I would prefer to check if the external application is
still running ,and if it is, then use the Taskkill command.
I know there has been a number of new commands added in the last
couple of years and maybe there is one to check if an external
program is running.
Makes sense? Any ideas on a better way to do this?
