Create a process a being notified when it stops

[Markeen]

I created a plugin which allows girder to create a process and be notified when it stops.

If anyone is interested here is the complete source code as well as the binary.

Could this be used for my problem? http://www.girder.nl/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=17130#17130

Mmmh... I don't see how my plugin can be of any use for you... but maybe I don't understand your problem.

Here is how ProcessCreate works:
0- Put ProcessCreate.dll int the girder plugin directory (obvious)
1- Activate it in the options (obvious)
2- Create a command and associate it with ProcessCreate (in the 'Plugin' tab)
3- Select the program to launch by pressing the 'Settings' button (in the 'Plugin' tab)
4- Execute the command (it will launch the program)
5- Press the 'Learn Event' button
6- ...and when the launched program is stopped ProcessCreate will send an event to girder (the full path name of the launched application)

I use ProcessCreate to launch an application which uses the COM port. So I make girder free the COM port then launch my app, I then can use this app and make girder re-enable the COM port when the app closes.

There is no dialog coming up, when I press the Settings button.
I use Girder 3.2.6b and WinXPpro.

EDIT:

The dialog is there, but it was hidden by other app-windows, because it is not forced to be the frontmost. Further presses to the Settings button opened new dialogs, but all behind other applications, even if girder is the frontmost.

Hi,

I Would love to use this plugin, which is exactly what I was looking
for. But I can't figure out where to download it.

It doesn't seem to be in the plugin download page.
