[Windows Mobile][C/C++] how getting Application Launch/exit time?

I wish to retrieve application-launch/exit time informations on windows CE platform development. Does someone know the equivalent of the function GetProcessTimes available on NT platforms but not on Windows CE

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/getprocesstimes.asp

Is there another way to get back process creation time than encapsulating a CreateProcess method by both GetSystemTime functions and getting the elapsed time by the difference That's all I figure out for the time being. I know there is a more efficient and precis way to get that but I don't know how

If any idea, please let me know...

Thanks a lot.

You'll want to use the toolhelp functions (start with CreateToolhelp32Snapshot, http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/wcekernl/html/_wcesdk_win32_CreateToolhelp32Snapshot.asp frame=true) and then look at passing the handle for the main thread of the process to GetThreadTimes.

If you can use CreateProcess to launch your process (i.e. you don't need to do this for already running processes), the PROCESS_INFO struct you get back will already have a handle to the main thread, and you can call GetThreadTimes directly rather than needing to go through Toolhelp32.

Hope this helps,
