can you assign a pid to a process via python
def main():
# Fetch information for current processes:
proc_info_old = get_proc_info()
# Extract list of PIDs:
pids_old = get_all(proc_info_old, "ProcessId")
# Do something that starts one or more new processes:
os.system('start notepad.exe')
# Fetch information for current processes:
proc_info_new = get_proc_info()
# Extract list of PIDs:
pids_new = get_pids(proc_info_new, "ProcessId")
# Determine PIDs which are only in pids_new, not in pids_old:
new_pids = list(set(pids_new) - set(pids_old))
# Output new PIDs and the associated command line:
for pid in new_pids:
cmd = get_for(proc_info_new, "ProcessId", pid, "CommandLine")
test.log("PID: %s" % pid)
test.log("CMD: %s" % cmd)
test.log("")
os.system("taskkill /f /im notepad.exe")
