FindProcDLL 2003 by iceman_k (Sunil Kamath), based upon the FIND_PROC_BY_NAME function written by Ravi Kochhar (http://www.physiology.wisc.edu/ravi/)


1. Introduction

  This plugin provides the ability to check if any process running just with the name of its .exe file.

    FindProc "process_name.exe"

  The return code is stored in the $R0 variable. 

The return codes are as follows:

   0   = Process was not found
   1   = Process was found
   605 = Unable to search for process
   606 = Unable to identify system type
   607 = Unsupported OS
   632 = Process name is invalid


2. Usage:

  Just copy the 'FindProcDLL.dll' in your NSIS plugins directory, and call the function with one of the two suggested syntax in the NSIS documentation:

    FindProcDLL::FindProc "process_name.exe"

OR

     ; Pre 2.0 syntax
    SetOutPath $TEMP
    GetTempFileName $8
    File /oname=$8 FindProcDLL.dll
    Push "process_name.exe"
    CallInstDLL FindProc

  $R0 will then hold the return value.
