Hi i'm trying to find a way to get my own PID from a bat script. I found this:
title=mycmd
tasklist /v /fo csv | findstr /i "mycmd"
that outputs:
"cmd.exe","15084","RDP-Tcp#5","2","2,768 K","Running","MEDIASERVER\Administrator
","0:00:00","Administrator: =mycmd"
how would I get the PID number into a variable in my bat script?
any help would be appreciated.
try with getcmdpid , thus you will not need to change the title:
call getCmdPID.bat
echo %errorlevel%
to do it with tasklist you'll need for loop to process the output:
title mycmd
for /f "tokens=2 delims=," %%a in (
'tasklist /v /fo csv ^| findstr /i "mycmd"'
) do (
set "mypid=%%~a"
)
echo %mypid%
