Ok, that is one program from me.
I had written it near 1,5 years ago. It's not completed for this moment. It was only for semester work at 3-d course of my University education.
I have some ideas about it, but haven't enough time now.
I use it myself for some specific reasons.

A program is like standard Win NT TaskManager but with some advanced features.
- list of modules (dll's) for process
- list of threads
- list of all modules in system
- list of kernel drivers
- memory map for process
- etc.

Also I want to add possibility of monitoring for remote machine of differents OS's ( Win, Linux/Unix ). And I have already necessary mechanisms which I did for other purposes, but which can use in it to...

At the end it will be of course something more widely than now.

so download from here:
(Better, Make right mouse click and choose "Save target as...", if U haven't anyone download agent, because otherwise U will go to site with cirilic codding )
www.dimm-coder.narod.ru/SysInfo.zip

Some features are not working here now :)

And I want to know: Is anybody need such program and
may be what he want from it??? Any suggestions...:)

But please do not say "This is sucks and so ... ":(

This sucks and so...

You can't resize the window properly !

No, just teasing, it looks great ;) Do you make the source code available too ? It contains probably a lot of interesting examples of API calls, no ? I don't mind if the comments are in russian :p

Ohhh, Yves, U've broken my heart :D

Yes, I know, as I said, it need more revisions...
And even some else ... :D

Not may be simple API calls. Here it use information from hidden hive of NT... registry HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA, etc.
And if U are interesting, of course, I can tell U about it and give some sources.

I some disoriented/confused now.
Is it so uninteresting to see a program that other member wrote? :(
Or may be it's so specific that even nobody, except Yves, don't want to see it?

First (a glance thing:)
...Cirillic did not help a lot (sepaking about the page where to download it) me in understanding what I was downloading...
(of course I have seen Pgm "speaks" english, and this is good)
Second, about the idea
...An extended task manager is really an interesting tool, provided it works correctly (and it seems yours is correctly working, so "good job!")
Third, about improvements:
...Nowaday many speaks about "defragmenting the Ram".
Can you implement a ram optimization for processes?

(And, yes: Yves is right: in resizing main window, you should change inside elemenst/objects accordingly) ;)

Have a nice day and keep it updated,

Cesare Imperiali

Opss, Yehh, I made this page by automatic way for some minutes at one of the free russian sites. But I couldn't think that it be big problem, because I thought that most part of users will made right mouse click and will choose "Save target as...". So there are no problem this way. But, of course, it's my mistake, and next time I will fix it.

Thank U :)

Ok, I haven't now time, but may be tomorrow I 'll write what I think about this :)

Thanks, Cesare, have a nice day to :)

Hey Dimm Coder....i am afraid of this kind of programs :D
No really, i always fear they will mess up my machine. Not like you program badly, but i mean one wrong move and BAM ! :D

Still i will get my hands on the prog now, see, how much confidence i have for it still ! ! !

Wow ! NICE UTILITY !

I liked it a lot ! May i come with suggestions ?

(Yes)

(Thanks :D)

Well, it would be better if you allow the dialog to be resized, and better yet ditch it in favour of a regular window (without a dialog template). Also, i think it needs some GUI designer put his hands on it...like menu arrangement here and there, common controls v6.0 support (Win XP) etc. The programming part is tiptip though ! No crashes, works like a clock !

Good Work !
Congratulations !

P.S. Is the CPU/Memory meter a distributed (shared) component, or did you mimic the taskmanager by yourself there ?

Ok, I know about such GUI ( and some other limitations ). As I had said above, I wrote it at limit time for my semester work and since that time I didn't develope it. I am not disigner. I have many ideas about enhanced it in technical part, but not in disign. I think soon I will develop it again and rewrite it from begin with new code organization. It will be good, of course, to find man who could write disign part ( or even simple could help with suggestions for disign part ). And next version will be, of course not like this, it will be client-server for remote administrating to.


P.S. Is the CPU/Memory meter a distributed (shared) component, or did you mimic the taskmanager by yourself there ?

No, it is not component, I simple draw it. But in next version ( I hope it will come ), of course, I need some original/nice component.

So, thank U, Amn! :)
And as I have said above, all suggestions are wellcome!

Oh well I think the most of posters here have good knowledge of Windows Task Manager. I open it and see the option for Page Fault and PF Delta. I understand what they are. But, explorer.exe has always value one for PF Delta in every second. It increase Page Fault size also. Do you know what makes this and what it is for? If so, what the system do clean up this number after it reaches to the top? I searched MSDN and Microsoft site, but nothing on my hand. Any reply or comment might be helpful.

That was about 1.5 years ago and now I haven't that page any more. I find it quite astonishing that someone could find that thread after such a long time :p
Mathew, if U are interested in that program, I can provide it via ftp.

No wonder...

I was thinking, when did Amn rose from the dead :D

Well, I was looking for testing it. Well, if it isn't there, you don't have to take the trouble.
