Checking the processes running in the back ground

[Madz.R]

Apart from pressing the menu button for 3 secs, is there any method to know the running processes? ALso is there a possibility that the 3 sec menu button press fails to show some of the running processes?

there can still be hidden processes running which will nto be listed by long press of menu key.

TApaTask can be used to check the currently running processes.

And if you are just looking for a tool, then you could try checking my Y-Tools application and its plug-ins..

U should search the process by it's ur name and UID, one example code is following, this function search the process by name.

TBool Search::SearchProssessL(const TDesC8& KName)
{
	TBuf8<100> buf;
	TFullName repName;
	TFindProcess proess;
	while(proess.Next(repName) != KErrNotFound) 
	{
		buf.Copy(repName);
		if(buf.Find(KName) != KErrNotFound)
		{
			return ETrue;
		}
	}
	return EFalse;
}
