Windows API's which will show the running processes

Question

I want to create a tool like mini task manager. I want to show all the running processes, cpu and memory usage. Can anybody tell me related api's which I can use for this. Any link to related web page will be appreciated. (I want dump of all the statistics of running processes, cpu and memory.) Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

To do that, you will need to use the tool help functions to get snapshots of the system.

Here is a code example.

Answer 2

You can use EnumProcess and openProcess to do this. Here is a complete sample code for this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682623%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
