How do I emulate os.kill() in Windows?
--------------------------------------
-Use win32api::
+To terminate a process, you can use ctypes::
+
+ import ctypes
def kill(pid):
"""kill function for Win32"""
- import win32api
- handle = win32api.OpenProcess(1, 0, pid)
- return (0 != win32api.TerminateProcess(handle, 0))
+ kernel32 = ctypes.windll.kernel32
+ handle = kernel32.OpenProcess(1, 0, pid)
+ return (0 != kernel32.TerminateProcess(handle, 0))
Why does os.path.isdir() fail on NT shared directories?
