The PID (Process ID) a unique number for each item on the Process Tab, Image Name list. How do you get the PID to appear?
Answer:In Task Manger, select the View menu, then select columns and check PID (Process Identifier).In Linux, PID is used to debug a process explicitly. However we cannot do this in a windows environment.
Microsoft has launched a SDK called as Microsoft Operations Management (MOM). This uses the PID to find out which dll?s have been loaded by a process in the memory. This is essentially helpful in situations where the Process which has a memory leak is to be traced to a erring dll. Personally I have never used a PID, our Windows debugger does the things required to find out.
