I am tasked with making a program (In Java, since its the only language I can code in right now) where a watchdog monitors the system. If one process uses more than 1GB of RAM, the system kicks the dog and the watchdog prints a message in the console (I.E.: "Process -name- used more than 1 GB of memory"). I've made the Watchdog, however...I have yet to come across a way to get every process' information from the system in Java.
EDIT: To rectify, I need help on Windows 7 64bit. I require the process info of let's say running games or application (Skype, etc).
Any help would be tremendously useful!
Watchdog:
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.Vector;
public class Watchdog implements Runnable {
private Vector observers = new Vector(1);
private final long timeout;
private boolean stopped = false;
public Watchdog(final long timeout) {
if (timeout < 1) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("timeout must not be less than 1.");
}
this.timeout = timeout;
}
public void addTimeoutObserver(final TimeoutObserver to) {
observers.addElement(to);
}
public void removeTimeoutObserver(final TimeoutObserver to) {
observers.removeElement(to);
}
protected final void fireTimeoutOccured() {
Enumeration e = observers.elements();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
((TimeoutObserver) e.nextElement()).timeoutOccured(this);
}
}
public synchronized void start() {
stopped = false;
Thread t = new Thread(this, "WATCHDOG");
t.setDaemon(true);
t.start();
}
public synchronized void stop() {
stopped = true;
notifyAll();
}
public synchronized void run() {
final long until = System.currentTimeMillis() + timeout;
long now;
while (!stopped && until > (now = System.currentTimeMillis())) {
try {
wait(until - now);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
}
}
if (!stopped) {
fireTimeoutOccured();
}
}
}
