Examples

The following code example creates a new process for the Notepad.exe application. The code iterates through the ProcessModuleCollection class to obtain a ProcessModule object for each module in the collection. The ModuleName and FileName properties are used to display the module name and the full path information for each module.

C#

using (Process myProcess = new Process())
{
    // Get the process start information of notepad.
    ProcessStartInfo myProcessStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("notepad.exe");
    // Assign 'StartInfo' of notepad to 'StartInfo' of 'myProcess' object.
    myProcess.StartInfo = myProcessStartInfo;
    // Create a notepad.
    myProcess.Start();
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
    ProcessModule myProcessModule;
    // Get all the modules associated with 'myProcess'.
    ProcessModuleCollection myProcessModuleCollection = myProcess.Modules;
    Console.WriteLine("File names of the modules associated "
        + "with 'notepad' are:");
    // Display the 'FileName' of each of the modules.
    for (int i = 0; i < myProcessModuleCollection.Count; i++)
    {
        myProcessModule = myProcessModuleCollection[i];
        Console.WriteLine(myProcessModule.ModuleName + " : "
            + myProcessModule.FileName);
    }
    // Get the main module associated with 'myProcess'.
    myProcessModule = myProcess.MainModule;
    // Display the 'FileName' of the main module.
    Console.WriteLine("The process's main module's FileName is: "
        + myProcessModule.FileName);
    myProcess.CloseMainWindow();
}

Remarks

If the file name is longer than the maximum number of characters allowed, the file name is truncated.
