I am trying to use .NET to "tap into" a named pipe created by a non .NET 3rd
party application. Specifically, the application is a table loading utility.
It opens a named pipe and waits for input.
Does anybody know how I can write to the named pipe from a .NET program. I
have tried using the traditional file access methods, and it appears that
pipes have a problem with file streams. I have tried API calls, but since I
do not have the handle of the pipe, I am having a hard time communicating.
Has anyone accomplished this? HELP!
Thanks!

Hi,
IIRC .NET do not have support for named piped, you will have to P/Invoke
the API, I have a link in the office and will send it to you tomorrow(
monday ) morning. you could do a search in google though.
cheers,

I am creating an application using VC++ that runs on a terminal server with 30 end users. The end users will use thin clients as front end machines.

Actually I use 1 named pipe as the main tube for data transfer. What happens is that sometimes the session of...

interprocess communication method

I set about creating, on the pipe's server side, a new thread which would
instantiate a blocking inbound message pipe, and the
client side which would write to that pipe when needed. Being on the same

Hi,
The system is Windows XP and DB2 v8.1.7.
I'm trying to load a text file via named pipe into a table.
I have two programs:
the first program creates the named pipe, waits for a client and
writes the text file into the named pipe.
the second program is doing the db2Load() call.

Hi everybody,
Is it possible to open a named pipe from a php script on Windows?
More specifically, I have a Windows service that receives commands through a
named pipe, and I'd like to open the client end of the pipe directly from
php rather than creating an intermediate process.
Thanks,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
