Proc::ProcessTable::Process.3pm

NAME

Proc::ProcessTable::Process - Perl process objects

SYNOPSIS

  $process->kill(9);
  $process->priority(19);
  $process->pgrp(500);
  $uid = $process->uid;
  ...
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This is a stub module to provide OO process attribute access for Proc::ProcessTable. Proc::ProcessTable::Process objects are constructed directly by Proc::ProcessTable; there is no constructor method, only accessors.

METHODS

kill

Sends a signal to the process; just an aesthetic wrapper for perl's kill. Takes the signal (name or number) as an argument. Returns number of processes signalled.

priority

Get/set accessor; if called with a numeric argument, attempts to reset the process's priority to that number using perl's <B>setpriority function. Returns the process priority.

pgrp

Same as above for the process group.

all other methods...

are simple accessors that retrieve the process attributes for which they are named. Currently supported are:

   uid         UID of process
   gid         GID of process
   euid        effective UID of process           (Solaris only)
   egid        effective GID of process           (Solaris only)
   pid         process ID
   ppid        parent process ID
   spid        sprod ID                           (IRIX only)
   pgrp        process group
   sess        session ID
   cpuid       CPU ID of processor running on     (IRIX only)
   priority    priority of process
   ttynum      tty number of process
   flags       flags of process
   minflt      minor page faults                  (Linux only)
   cminflt     child minor page faults            (Linux only)
   majflt      major page faults                  (Linux only)
   cmajflt     child major page faults            (Linux only)
   utime       user mode time (1/100s of seconds) (Linux only)
   stime       kernel mode time                   (Linux only)
   cutime      child utime                        (Linux only)
   cstime      child stime                        (Linux only)
   time        user + system time                 
   ctime       child user + system time
   timensec    user + system nanoseconds part     (Solaris only)
   ctimensec   child user + system nanoseconds    (Solaris only)
   qtime       cumulative cpu time                (IRIX only)
   size        virtual memory size (bytes)
   rss         resident set size (bytes)
   wchan       address of current system call 
   fname       file name
   start       start time (seconds since the epoch)
   pctcpu      percent cpu used since process started
   state       state of process
   pctmem      percent memory                     
   cmndline    full command line of process
   ttydev      path of process's tty
   clname      scheduling class name              (IRIX only)
