Hi!
I've piece of code like follow:
<code>
LPTSTR lpszPipename = (LPTSTR) "\\\\.\\pipe\\t estpipe";
hPipe = CreateNamedPipe (
lpszPipename, // pipe name
PIPE_ACCESS_DUP LEX | // read/write access
FILE_FLAG_OVERL APPED,
PIPE_TYPE_MESSA GE | // message type pipe
PIPE_READMODE_M ESSAGE | // message-read mode
PIPE_WAIT, // blocking mode
1, // number of instances (max. instances - PIPE_UNLIMITED_ INSTANCES)
BUFSIZE, // output buffer size
BUFSIZE, // input buffer size
PIPE_TIMEOUT, // client time-out
NULL);
<code>
When I had first line like this:
LPTSTR lpszPipename = "\\\\.\\pipe\\t estpipe";
Compiler show an error:
C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'const char [18]' to 'LPTSTR'
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cas t,
C-style cast or function-style cast
so i change it into:
LPTSTR lpszPipename = (LPTSTR) "\\\\.\\pipe\\t estpipe";
Now build process end properly but while i execute application I get an
error 123 "The file name, directory name, or volume label syntax is
incorrect." So, name of named pipe is wrong, I suppose.
That code is part of NT Service application, so I develop it under
Managed/Unmanaged C++. What should I do?
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi,
I'm having a little trouble when I read from a named pipe. I create a
pipe by
os.mkfifo('/tmp/mypipe')
and then open it for reading with
fin = open('/tmp/mypipe','r+')

I have a simple test to pass information from a client to a server
using named pipe. what I really want is: when I type a line on the client,
the server will output the line immediately. but to my surprise, I always
have to terminate the client to get the server in action, i.e. prints out
what I typed.
anything I missed? I am compiling using gcc without any option.
thanks,

Hi everybody
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. The application consists of a main menu executeble that opens other executables depending on the user selection. In order to establish that communication I use named pipes. Actually I use 1 named pipe as the main tube for data transfer. What happens is that sometimes the session of...

I am trying to use .NET to "tap into" a named pipe created by a non .NET 3rd

I am writing two services in VB.NET, one of which needs to send text strings
to the other. After reading, I
decided (perhaps incorrectly) that named pipes would be the best
interprocess communication method
for this task.
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
PC, security is...

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,

I am rather new to pipes, but I have two c# programs that are communicating via a named pipe. This is working fine on two of my XP Pro SP2 machines. However, when I port to a third machine (also XP Pro SP2), I cannot connect to my named pipe. Are there any simple permission/access issues that need to be considered with named pipes? The pipe is being accessed locally, so I don't need to access it accross a network.
The code for creating my...

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:
