Detailed Description

Launches and monitors a child process.

This class lets you launch an executable, and read its output. You can also use it to check whether the child process has finished.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ StreamFlags

These flags are used by the start() methods.

wantStdErr 

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ChildProcess()

ChildProcess::ChildProcess ( )

Creates a process object. To actually launch the process, use start().

◆ ~ChildProcess()

ChildProcess::~ChildProcess ( )

Destructor. Note that deleting this object won't terminate the child process.

Member Function Documentation

◆ getExitCode()

uint32 ChildProcess::getExitCode ( ) const

If the process has finished, this returns its exit code.

◆ isRunning()

bool ChildProcess::isRunning ( ) const

Returns true if the child process is alive.

◆ kill()

bool ChildProcess::kill ( )

Attempts to kill the child process. Returns true if it succeeded. Trying to read from the process after calling this may result in undefined behaviour.

◆ readAllProcessOutput()

String ChildProcess::readAllProcessOutput ( )

Blocks until the process has finished, and then returns its complete output as a string.

◆ readProcessOutput()

int ChildProcess::readProcessOutput ( void *  destBuffer,
int  numBytesToRead 
)

Attempts to read some output from the child process. This will attempt to read up to the given number of bytes of data from the process. It returns the number of bytes that were actually read.

◆ start() [1/2]

bool ChildProcess::start ( const String command,
int  streamFlags = wantStdOut | wantStdErr 
)

Attempts to launch a child process command.

The command should be the name of the executable file, followed by any arguments that are required. If the process has already been launched, this will launch it again. If a problem occurs, the method will return false. The streamFlags is a combinations of values to indicate which of the child's output streams should be read and returned by readProcessOutput().

◆ start() [2/2]

bool ChildProcess::start ( const StringArray arguments,
int  streamFlags = wantStdOut | wantStdErr 
)

Attempts to launch a child process command.

The first argument should be the name of the executable file, followed by any other arguments that are needed. If the process has already been launched, this will launch it again. If a problem occurs, the method will return false. The streamFlags is a combinations of values to indicate which of the child's output streams should be read and returned by readProcessOutput().

◆ waitForProcessToFinish()

bool ChildProcess::waitForProcessToFinish ( int  timeoutMs) const

Blocks until the process is no longer running.
