TerminateProcess pinvoke

[Jose]

Hello,

I'm trying to grab the process id based on the window's Hwnd. I can
get the process id correctly, but I can't figure out how to pass that
into TerminateProcess. Assuming the call to GetWindowThreadProcessId()
gets a valid procID, how can I use that to call TerminateProcess? Is
my pinvoke wrong?

[DllImport("coredll")] public static extern uint
GetWindowThreadProcessId(IntPtr hwnd, out uint lpdwProcessId);
[DllImport("coredll")] public static extern int TerminateProcess(IntPtr
procID, uint uExitCode);
uint theProc = 0;
GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, out procID);

TerminateProcess takes a hProcess (handle to a process) you can use
OpenProcess to return the handle from the PID.

TerminateProcess needs process handle not id:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...kernl/html/_wcesdk_win32_terminateprocess.asp

Its declaration can be found on openetcf. Or you can use the Process class
from the same place:
http://www.opennetcf.org/SourceBrow...netPub/wwwroot/Source/OpenNETCF/Win32/Core.cs

However, I would not recommend closing a process like that. Send a WM_CLOSE
or design some mechanism rather than brute force.

Cheers
Daniel
