PMVKPROC v2.1 ------------- ******************************************************************************** General Information ------------------- The PMVKPROC utility is a system information utility which has its derivation from an process view and kill utility out of which the name was generated (PMVKPROC = Presentation Manager View and Kill PROCesses). Currently PMVKPROC shows informations about some system variables like the size of the time slot and informations about the running processes. The PMVKPROC utility is a 32-bit application which runs under the WPS. It is developed with IBMs Visual Age C++ and the IOCL library by which the program is a little bit larger but better expandable with new functions. It is developed and tested under OS/2 3.0. There should be no problems to run it under OS/2 2.X but it is not guaranteed. PMVKPROC starts with an overview window. Here you can open additional windows with the actual information or you can set some options which are valid for all windows (like the font size). General information window -------------------------- This window displays information about system variables. Most of the shown variables are static. That means they are set in the CONFIG.SYS file or are detected during the startup procedure of OS/2. The variables are grouped in four parts: - Parallel processes - Time slice - Memory - Path length Process information window -------------------------- This window displays information about the currently running processes. There are two listboxes: one which shows all processes with there parent-child dependencies and one which shows detailed information about a selected process like number of thread or loaded modules. It is also possible to kill a process. Be careful with this function because the process is killed via the DosKillProcess function. There is no saving of data or something else. ******************************************************************************** Shareware Information --------------------- The PMVKPROC utility is a fully functional shareware version. Support shareware by sending $10 after a test period of 10 days to: Frank Stanischewski Elise-Spaeth-Strasse 17 D-91058 Erlangen Germany (C) 1996 Frank Stanischewski ******************************************************************************** Installation Information ------------------------ Use the INSTALL.EXE program to install and deinstall the program. All files should be in the same directory to install the program. To deinstall you only need the INSTALL.EXE and INSTALL.HLP in an directory. For more information use the help in the INSTALL.EXE file. There is explained what is going on during the installation and deinstallation. ******************************************************************************** Author Information ------------------ For any suggestions or bug reports send an e-mail to: stani@t-online.de If you have no access to e-mail, you can send normal mail to : Frank Stanischewski Elise-Spaeth-Strasse 17 D-91058 Erlangen Germany or you can send me a FAX : Number : +49-9131-302699 ******************************************************************************** Changes : --------- Version 1.1 Added new DLL : FISSOFT.DLL cause of error `cannot find DDE4MUI.DLLï. Linked other libraries statically. Version 1.2 Added loaded module information of processes. Debugged SYS3175 error. Need no DLL anymore. Big change ! All 1.X version will not work in other computers than on mine one. I think it was a compiler bug. Who knows. Version 2.0 Everything new. New outfit. Use the Visuall Age C++ with the new library IOCL to develop the program. Added an installation program because of the use of some entries in the OS2.INI profile to find my own profile where window positions are put. Version 2.1 - New: installation program (directory selection window etc.) - New: window design caused by new information - New: information window for general system informations
