Examples
The following code example starts an instance of the Notepad application. The example then retrieves and displays various properties of the associated process. The example detects when the process exits, and displays its exit code and peak memory statistics.
#using <system.dll>

using namespace System::Diagnostics;
int main()
{
// Define variables to track the peak
// memory usage of the process.
_int64 peakPagedMem = 0,peakWorkingSet = 0,peakVirtualMem = 0;
Process^ myProcess = nullptr;
try
{
// Start the process.
myProcess = Process::Start( "NotePad.exe" );
// Display the process statistics until
// the user closes the program.
do
{
if ( !myProcess->HasExited )
{
// Refresh the current process property values.
myProcess->Refresh();
Console::WriteLine();
// Display current process statistics.
Console::WriteLine( "{0} -", myProcess );

Remarks
The value returned by this property value represents the maximum size of memory in the virtual memory paging file used by the process since it started, in bytes. The operating system uses the virtual memory paging file in conjunction with physical memory to manage the virtual address space for each process. When pageable memory is not in use, it can be transferred to the virtual memory paging file on disk.
This property can be used to monitor memory usage on computers with 32-bit processors or 64-bit processors. The property value is equivalent to the Page File Bytes Peak performance counter for the process.
