Process.Handle Property
Assembly: System (in system.dll)
| Exception type | Condition |
|---|---|
| The process has not been started. The Handle property cannot be read because there is no process associated with this Process instance. -or- The Process instance has been attached to a running process but you do not have the necessary permissions to get a handle with full access rights. | |
| You are trying to access the Handle property for a process running on a remote computer. |
An application can obtain a handle to a process that can be used as a parameter to many process-information and control functions. You can use this handle to initialize a WaitHandle or to call native methods with platform invoke.
This process handle is private to an application--in other words, process handles cannot be shared. A process also has a process Id which, unlike the Handle, is unique and, therefore, valid throughout the system.
Only processes started through a call to Start set the Handle property of the corresponding Process instances.
- SecurityPermission for calling members of Process. Demand value: LinkDemand; Named Permission Sets: FullTrust.
