Hi all,
The table Task Manager of the Microsoft Driver contains this feature and is defined as follows:
(*) Unique name -> pid 106
(*) Name Process -> pid 97
I don't understand how the autoincrement column (PID 106) is defined. I think that the structure of the autoincrement column should be equal to 'Group : incrementing number'. But the index 0 (argument groupby) is linked to pid 106 and not pid 97...
Hi,
The Microsoft Platform driver gets the data in the Task Manager table filled in by WMI queries (see action of type wmi, that has a return value="96"). That is the reference to fill in the data in table 96 (TaskManager).
The columns to be filled in are defined with the arguments in the action arguments="name;HandleCount;PercentProcessorTime;... means that the "name" will be filled in column 97, HandleCount will enter in column 98, and so on.
The autoincrement with options groupby=0;separator=: means that we'll be grouping by the first incoming column from the wmi result (which is pid 97 = Name Process), the ":" will be added to that (as defined with the separator) and then we'll add an autoincrement number so every item in that group will be unique.
Note that the returned process name from Windows will always be unique, if there are multiple processes with the same name then Windows will already add the # with a number as suffix so the autoincrement suffix value will always be ":0". It will only be handy in case a process disappears that the unique PK is still there when the Process Name already changed to "Not Found".
