GetCurrentProcess (Windows CE 5.0)
This function returns a pseudohandle for the current process.
HANDLEGetCurrentProcess(void);
Parameters
None.
Return Values
The return value is a pseudohandle to the current process.
Remarks
A pseudohandle is a special constant that is interpreted as the current process handle. The calling process can use this handle to specify its own process when a process handle is required.
This handle has the maximum possible access to the process object.
A process can also use the OpenProcess function to open a real handle to itself.
The pseudohandle does not need to be closed when it is no longer needed.
Calling the CloseHandle function with a pseudohandle can have unexplained results.
To retrieve the identifier for the current process, use the GetCurrentProcessId function. The process identifier value returned from GetCurrentProcessId can be cast to a handle and used in functions that require process handles.
Requirements
OS Versions: Windows CE 1.0 and later.
Header: Kfuncs.h.
Link Library: Coredll.lib.
