getting windows processes list

[Stefan Schukat]

The idea came from the from the 1.5.2 script from Mark Hammond
[PythonRoot]\win32\scripts\killProcName.py 

A little bit changed : 

#########################################################################
import win32api, win32pdhutil, win32con, sys

def CreateTaskManager():
	try:
		import win32pdh
		import win32pdhutil
	except ImportError:
		print "No performance data helper installed"
		return None

	processinfo,processes
=win32pdh.EnumObjectItems(None,None,"Process",-1)
	TaskManager = {}
	for process in processes:
		TaskManager[process] = {}
		for info in processinfo:
			TaskManager[process][info] =
win32pdhutil.FindPerformanceAttributesByName(process, counter=info)
	return TaskManager

if __name__ == '__main__':
	TaskManager = CreateTaskManager()
	# Show info about process	
	if TaskManager.has_key("pythonwin"):
		for Key in TaskManager["pythonwin"]:
			print "%-40s : %s " % (Key,
TaskManager["pythonwin"][Key][0])

Subject: getting windows processes list


Hi Gang,

Does anybody know offhand how to use Python to get the list of processes
that
are currently running on Windows?  (I'm essentially trying to get the
information that appears in Window's Task Manager's "Processes" tab.)
