I am trying to get wireless information from this progie:

http://www.dnsoft.be/

It used to show the Wi-Fi Signal Strength.

It?s a great program...

My question is: Is there a common way to grab informations from others programs? :D

Hi Rafael.
The most common are:

. Shared memory access
. Registry
. Ini file

Hi Limbo...

And to proceed with this?

I got directly from WMI counters...

static void Main(string[] args)
{
String dbase = "root\\WMI";
String query1 = "select Ndis80211ReceivedSignalStrength from MSNdis_80211_ReceivedSignalStrength where active = true";

ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(@dbase,query1);

foreach (ManagementObject mo in searcher.Get())
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} dBm",mo["Ndis80211ReceivedSignalStrength"]);
}
}

Studing these controllers, I think that we can obtain specific information from motherboard sensors... Imagine, grab the CPU temperature without Speedfan or MBM....

A great program to explorer these counters is WMI Explorer....

:D
