uintptr_t mem::GetProcId(const char procName)* which takes as parameter the procname has the function to get the procid of a process:
- We create a hSnap (handle) to snapshot all processes
- We loop through all processes
- We make a storage var to store the process name and convert it to WCHAR
- Using the function "_wcsicmp we compare the proccess with the wProcName(given process)
- return our procId.
bool mem::isProcessRunning(const char procname)* is the same as the function from the above but the difference is this one is a bool function so the return value will be true/false.
