I am having trouble though with child processes that have only Windows PIDs and not cygwin PIDs. When I run Xilinx bitgen from cygwin 2 processes are run both with the name bitgen.exe. Below I am running bitgen through make. PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND S 3936 2836 3936 2380 0 12696 19:54:49 /usr/bin/make S 808 3936 3936 2852 0 12696 19:54:49 /cygdrive/c/Xilinx/10.1/ISE/bin/nt/bitgen 2852 0 0 2852 ? 0 19:54:49 c:\Xilinx\10.1\ISE\bin\nt\bitgen.exe 504 0 0 504 ? 0 19:54:49 c:\Xilinx\10.1\ISE\bin\nt\unwrapped\bitgen.exe When I ctrl-c to kill bitgen after calling make I end up killing only process 808 which is also process 2852 as 808 is the child of 3936 (make). 504 doesn't get killed, and within process explorer I see it running and it reports it's parent as 2852 even though 2852 is gone. I thought I could kill the process by finding it within the make file after the bitgen call and manually killing it, but I haven't found a way to find the process. I prefer not to use a name based kill of bitgen b/c that will kill all bitgens that might be going on at the same time. I am running in an xterm on XP 32 bit SP3. Here are some relevant versions: bash 3.2.48(21) ps 1.11 pstree 21.5 kill 1.14 thanx, nachum -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/pstree-on-windows-xp---find-process-spawned-from-windows-process-tp23197461p23197461.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
