has_exited()

bool xtd::diagnostics::process::has_exited

(

)

const

Gets a value indicating whether the associated process has been terminated.

Returns

true if the operating system process referenced by the process component has terminated; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

xtd::invalid_operation_exception	There is no process associated with the object.
xtd::not_supported_exception	You are trying to access the xtd::diagnostics::process::has_exited property for a process that is running on a remote computer. This property is available only for processes that are running on the local computer.

Remarks

A value of true for xtd::diagnostics::process::has_exited indicates that the associated process has terminated, either normally or abnormally. You can request or force the associated process to exit by calling xtd::diagnostics::process::close_main_window or xtd::diagnostics::process::kill. If a handle is open to the process, the operating system releases the process memory when the process has exited, but retains administrative information about the process, such as the handle, exit code, and exit time. To get this information, you can use the xtd::diagnostics::process::exit_code and xtd::diagnostics::process::exit_time properties. These properties are populated automatically for processes that were started by this component. The administrative information is released when all the Process components that are associated with the system process are destroyed and hold no more handles to the exited process.

A process can terminate independently of your code. If you started the process using this component, the system updates the value of xtd::diagnostics::process::has_exited automatically, even if the associated process exits independently.

Note

When standard output has been redirected to asynchronous event handlers, it is possible that output processing will not have completed when HasExited returns true. To ensure that asynchronous event handling has been completed, call the xtd::diagnostics::wait_for_exit() overload that takes no parameter before checking xtd::diagnostics::has_exited.
