IsApplicationRunning

The IsApplicationRunning function performs a background check on whether or not a specified program aAppName is currently running.

The function returns a boolean response of True if the program is running, and False if it is not.

Cleverly, it will detect if the program it is being called from is running.

Declaration: 'Function IsApplicationRunning(aAppName : string) : boolean

A simple example follows.

procedure ScriptEvent (var Value : variant);
var
  ConfYN : boolean;
begin
  LogInfo('');
  //Checking to see whether Statelake MANAGER is currently running
  ConfYN := IsApplicationRunning('manager.exe');
  If ConfYN = true then
    LogInfo('Yes it is running.')
  else
    LogInfo('Nope, it is not!!');
    
  LogInfo('');
  //Checking to see whether Statelake DESIGNER is currently running
  //Of course it will be!
  ConfYN := IsApplicationRunning('designer.exe');
  If ConfYN = true then
    LogInfo('Yes it is running')
  else
    LogInfo('Nope!!');
    
  LogInfo('');
end;
