ProcessModule.ModuleMemorySize Property

Definition

Gets the amount of memory that is required to load the module.

public:
 property int ModuleMemorySize { int get(); };
public int ModuleMemorySize { get; }
member this.ModuleMemorySize : int
Public ReadOnly Property ModuleMemorySize As Integer

Property Value

The size, in bytes, of the memory that the module occupies.

Examples

The following code example creates a new process for the Notepad.exe application. The code iterates through the ProcessModuleCollection class to obtain a ProcessModule object for each module in the collection. The ModuleName and ModuleMemorySize properties are used to display the module name and the amount of memory needed for each module.

using (Process myProcess = new Process())
{
    // Get the process start information of notepad.
    ProcessStartInfo myProcessStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("notepad.exe");
    // Assign 'StartInfo' of notepad to 'StartInfo' of 'myProcess' object.
    myProcess.StartInfo = myProcessStartInfo;
    // Create a notepad.
    myProcess.Start();
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
    ProcessModule myProcessModule;
    // Get all the modules associated with 'myProcess'.
    ProcessModuleCollection myProcessModuleCollection = myProcess.Modules;
    Console.WriteLine("Module memory sizes of the modules associated "
        + "with 'notepad' are:");
    // Display the 'ModuleMemorySize' of each of the modules.
    for (int i = 0; i < myProcessModuleCollection.Count; i++)
    {
        myProcessModule = myProcessModuleCollection[i];
        Console.WriteLine(myProcessModule.ModuleName + " : "
            + myProcessModule.ModuleMemorySize);
    }
    // Get the main module associated with 'myProcess'.
    myProcessModule = myProcess.MainModule;
    // Display the 'ModuleMemorySize' of the main module.
    Console.WriteLine("The process's main module's ModuleMemorySize is: "
        + myProcessModule.ModuleMemorySize);
    myProcess.CloseMainWindow();
}
Using myProcess As New Process()
    ' Get the process start information of notepad.
    Dim myProcessStartInfo As New ProcessStartInfo("notepad.exe")
    ' Assign 'StartInfo' of notepad to 'StartInfo' of 'myProcess' object.
    myProcess.StartInfo = myProcessStartInfo
    ' Create a notepad.
    myProcess.Start()
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000)
    Dim myProcessModule As ProcessModule
    ' Get all the modules associated with 'myProcess'.
    Dim myProcessModuleCollection As ProcessModuleCollection = myProcess.Modules
    Console.WriteLine("Module memory sizes of the modules associated " +
                      "with 'notepad' are:")
    ' Display the 'ModuleMemorySize' of each of the modules.
    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 0 To myProcessModuleCollection.Count - 1
        myProcessModule = myProcessModuleCollection(i)
        Console.WriteLine(myProcessModule.ModuleName + " : " +
                    myProcessModule.ModuleMemorySize.ToString())
    Next i
    ' Get the main module associated with 'myProcess'.
    myProcessModule = myProcess.MainModule
    ' Display the 'ModuleMemorySize' of the main module.
    Console.WriteLine("The process's main module's ModuleMemorySize is: " +
                         myProcessModule.ModuleMemorySize.ToString())
    myProcess.CloseMainWindow()
End Using

Remarks

ModuleMemorySize does not include any additional memory allocations that the module makes once it is running; it includes only the size of the static code and data in the module file.
