    Suspend a running process.

    Declaration

    Source position: processbody.inc line 194

    public 
function TProcess.Suspend : Integer;  virtual;

    Description

    Suspend suspends a running process. If the call is successful, the process is suspended: it stops running, but can be made to execute again using the Resume call.

    Suspend is fundamentally different from TProcess.Terminate which actually stops the process.

    Errors

    On error, a nonzero result is returned.
