Xtop.exe Process ID from Asynchronous Program

Xtop.exe Process ID from Asynchronous Program

Has anyone been able to determine the process Id of xtop.exe started from
an asynchronous Pro/TOOLKIT program? I'm trying to traverse the process
list but there is no connection between my application Id and xtop.exe.
Not even through pro_comm_msg.exe. Any thoughts?

I found the answer but it's only for Wildfire 4.0.

The solution is (Wildfire 4.0 only) is to have the dll publish it's
application id (ProToolkitIdGet) in the registry under a key that contains
the Pro/ENGINEER connection Id (ProEngineerConnectionIdGet). The
asynchronous program can also call ProEngineerConnectionIdGet to formulate
the proper registry key and query the value of the toolkit dll id. For
example:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Raytheon\ProUtilOutputLib\<connection id=">
ToolkitDllId <toolkit id=">

Of course the asynchronous application has to know what the root of the
key will be but that is something that can be assumed.
