Windows CE 6.0 - Can I get the total handle count of my application process?

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I have written a program for a Windows Mobile 6.0 device that needs to run 24/7.

For diagnostic purposes, I want my program to be able to periodically report the number of handles and the memory that the process has consumed.

My program is a Compact Framework app (C#), but I call windows api functions for certain information.

What functions will give me that information?

This legacy app uses CF 2.0 so the Process class does not have the handle count.

Solution 1

The windows API hast GetProcessHandleCount and the .net has Process.HandleCount.

It both wont fit, so you need to better protect the handles. Direct close after open or more secure code.

WM 6.0 is really outdated rubbish ;-)

Thanks very much for your help. Unfortunately this legacy app uses CF 2.0. Also, GetProcessHandleCount is not in the core of CE 6.0
