I would like to launch my application with lower CPU priority than normal. Is this possible, via C++ programming , or launch command line option? (the use of the task manager does fit to me). thanks, luiji.

If so, it will be via the Windows API, so try asking in the borland.public.cppbuilder.nativeapi newsgroup Alan Bellingham -- ACCU Conference: 11-14 April 2007 - Paramount Oxford Hotel Back to top John van de Geyn Guest Posted: Thu Jul 20, 2006 2:43 am    Post subject: Re: hoxto? process priority If you want o do that because you have some loop in your program that takes all system resources than try to put these 2 lines inside your loop. Application->ProcessMessages(); Sleep(3); It will slow your program down and pass some resources back to the OS.

CreateProcess() allows to specify priority in greater detail. /Pavel Back to top Ed Mulroy Guest Posted: Sat Jul 22, 2006 4:31 am    Post subject: Re: hoxto? process priority If you can put the code into the application itself, look up the functions SetProcessPriorityBoost and GetProcessPriorityBoost ..
