C#.NET Monitoring for a Process -

we have 3rd party in house app that's little buggy , now, till it's fixed, in our citrix environment, need keep eye on , kill process if runs long. able poll , kill if running that's quite dirty , require me use scheduled task. want service monitor , detect kill if it's running long.

so started windows service project in visual studio , found this code codeproject registers wmi using managementeventwatcher:

        string pol = "2";         string appname = "myapplicationname";          string querystring =             "select *" +             "  __instanceoperationevent " +             "within  " + pol +             " targetinstance isa 'win32_process' " +             "   , targetinstance.name = '" + appname + "'";          // replace dot machine name watch machine         string scope = @"\\.\root\cimv2";          // create watcher , start listen         managementeventwatcher watcher = new managementeventwatcher(scope, querystring);         watcher.eventarrived += new eventarrivedeventhandler(this.oneventarrived);         watcher.start(); 

the problem code says "this.oneventarrived", following error:

error 1 'myserviceapp.service1' not contain definition 'oneventarrived' , no extension method 'oneventarrived' accepting first argument of type 'myserviceapp.service1' found (are missing using directive or assembly reference?)

what's deal?

the documentation can found on msdn https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.management.managementeventwatcher.eventarrived%28v=vs.110%29.aspx

oneventarrived should this.

private void oneventarrived(object sender, managementeventargs args) { //do work here } 

here sample program monitor notepad. want read more on wmi see if there better way. can launch notepad via start menu , see notepad started out put console. on exiting print notepad exited. not know messages can output.

    static void main(string[] args)     {          string pol = "2";         string appname = "notepad.exe";          string querystring =             "select *" +             "  __instanceoperationevent " +             "within  " + pol +             " targetinstance isa 'win32_process' " +             "   , targetinstance.name = '" + appname + "'";          // replace dot machine name watch machine         string scope = @"\\.\root\cimv2";          // create watcher , start listen         managementeventwatcher watcher = new managementeventwatcher(scope, querystring);         watcher.eventarrived += new eventarrivedeventhandler(oneventarrived);         watcher.start();         console.read();     }      private static void oneventarrived(object sender, eventarrivedeventargs e)     {         if (e.newevent.classpath.classname.contains("instancecreationevent"))             console.writeline("notepad started");         else if (e.newevent.classpath.classname.contains("instancedeletionevent"))             console.writeline("notepad exited");         else             console.writeline(e.newevent.classpath.classname);     }
