For the path of app i can do like that :

Code:
# Get the path of runing app
list create,1
list modules,1,app.exe
%%app_path = @item(1,0)
list close,1


But I don't know how to find the Handle using GetModuleHandleA or GetModuleHandleW

Code:
# Get the Handle
loadlib "kernel32.dll"
  %t = @lib("kernel32.dll","GetModuleHandleA",INT:,NIL:%%app_path)
freelib "kernel32.dll"


I don't know how to use this (if it's right)

Can you help me ?

Code:
# Get the Handle
loadlib kernel32.dll
  %t = @lib(kernel32,GetModuleHandleA,INT:,NIL:)
freelib kernel32


If module name is NULL (ie.. NIL: ), GetModuleHandle returns a handle of the file used to create the calling process (e.g. ... the Exe that calls GetModuleHandle).

Ok thanks for your help !

Can you tell me how can I "join" this 3 script to reduce the memory of the runing process App.exe?

Code:
# Get the path of runing app
%%app = App.exe
list create,1
list modules,1,%%app
%%app_path = @item(1,0)
list close,1

Code:
# Get the Handle
loadlib kernel32.dll
  %t = @lib(kernel32,GetModuleHandleA,INT:,NIL:)
freelib kernel32

Code:
#Reduce memory
loadlib "psapi.dll"
%t = @lib("psapi.dll","EmptyWorkingSet",INT:,%%handle)
freelib "psapi.dll"

Johnny,
I think GregLand is actually wanting the HINSTANCE of a non VDS app. At
least that's what I understood from his first post in this thread, that's why
me previous post was answered the way that it was, though I prolly
should've included sample code.

Unless your program launches that program you will not be able to change it's working set size.

Thanks for the script... but it doesn't look to work correctly... Confused
%%handle and %t return 0 (while the app %%app is running)

Code:

# run the app
run "D:\programmes\FireFox\firefox.exe" -Profile "D:\programmes\FireFox\profil"

# Get the path of runing app
%%app = firefox.exe
list create,1
list modules,1,%%app
%%app_path = @item(1,0)
list close,1
 
# Get the Handle
loadlib kernel32.dll
  %%handle = @lib(kernel32,GetModuleHandleA,INT:,STR:%%app_path)
freelib kernel32

#Reduce memory
loadlib psapi.dll
%t = @lib(psapi,EmptyWorkingSet,INT:,INT:%%handle)
freelib psapi

Gregland,
It is not going to work. The Exe that you are trying to reduce the memory usage has to be mapped to the same memory as the Exe that is calling these functions. This is not really possible. These functions are meant to be used inside a Exe or DLL to control memory usage of the Exe calling the functions. It is usually not allowed for an external Exe to control the memory of another Exe in the Windows memory model. If you were allowed to do that then you could really do some damage. Personally I would contact the developer of the Exe that you are trying to do this with and ask them to optimize their memory usage.
