INTRODUCTION
The Need For Plug-in - I need it for the one of my installers.
Briefly: Use it when you need to find\kill a process when
installing\uninstalling some application. Also, use it when you
need to test the presence of a device driver.
SUPPORT
Supported platforms are: WinNT,Win2K,WinXP and Win2003 Server.
DESCRIPTION
Processes::FindProcess <process_name> ;without ".exe"
Searches the currently running processes for the given
process name.
return: 1 - the process was found
0 - the process was not found
Processes::KillProcess <process_name> ; without ".exe"
Searches the currently running processes for the given
process name. If the process is found then the it gets
killed.
return: 1 - the process was found and killed
0 - the process was not found or the process
cannot be killed (insuficient rights)
Processes::FindDevice <device_base_name>
Searches the installed devices drivers for the given
device base name.
(important: I said BASE NAME not FILENAME)
return: 1 - the device driver was found
0 - the device driver was not found
USAGE
First of all, does not matter where you use it. Ofcourse, the
routines must be called inside of a Section/Function scope.
