It seems that this person wants a method to terminate a task
that was not created by Win32::Process::Create. Win32::Process
does not seem to allow control of such processes (at least
not in the exported methods). I have done some research
today looking for a module that might allow it, but other
than resorting to a Win32API system call, I cannot find one.
Update: I have refreshed my memory on Win32
system calls, and it does not appear to be possible to use
an API call to kill a window unless the killer spawned the
process. It is quite possible that there is something that
I don't know about that will do this, as I am by no means
a Win32 guru, but it looks to me like it is not ... or it's
very difficult. | [reply] |
