Member Function Documentation

bit Control.OS.Process.paused (   )

Return whether this process is paused. Initially the process is paused.

Control.OS.Process.this (  char  command[], char  args[][] )

Create a process. The process will be paused; use "paused (false)" to start it. Parameters: command  The path and filename of the executable. This is either an absolute path or searched using whatever path settings are made for this operating system. You can control other parameters by prefixing characters to the command. Prefixing "%" shows a command window. "$" debugs the process. args  A list of arguments passed to the command.

bit Control.OS.Process.wait (  int  milliseconds  )

Unpause the process and then wait for it for a number of milliseconds. Returns whether the process is not finished.

DebugEvent Control.OS.Process.waitForDebugEvent (  int  milliseconds  )  [static]

Wait for a debug event for a number of milliseconds. Note that if you are debugging a process you just created, you have to unpause it first using paused (false). Parameters: milliseconds  The number of milliseconds to wait, or zero to check if there is a waiting event and return that. Returns: Returns a new debug event or null if none occured before the timeout.
