Procedura: utilizzare le unnamed pipe per la comunicazione interprocesso locale

Le unnamed pipe consentono la comunicazione interprocesso in un computer locale. Offrono meno funzionalità rispetto alle named pipe, ma richiedono anche meno overhead. È possibile usare le unnamed pipe per semplificare la comunicazione interprocesso in un computer locale. Non è possibile usare le unnamed pipe per la comunicazione in rete.

Per implementare le pipe anonime, utilizzare le classi AnonymousPipeServerStream e AnonymousPipeClientStream.

Esempio 1

L'esempio seguente illustra come inviare una stringa da un processo padre a un processo figlio usando unnamed pipe. Questo esempio crea un oggetto AnonymousPipeServerStream in un processo padre con un valore di PipeDirection equivalente a Out. Il processo padre crea quindi un processo figlio usando un handle client per creare un oggetto AnonymousPipeClientStream. Il processo figlio ha un valore di PipeDirection equivalente a In.

Il processo padre invia quindi una stringa fornita dall'utente al processo figlio. La stringa viene visualizzata nella console del processo figlio.

L'esempio seguente mostra il processo server.

L'esempio seguente mostra il processo client. Il processo server avvia il processo client e fornisce al processo un handle client. Il file eseguibile risultante dal codice client deve essere denominato pipeClient.exe e copiato nella stessa directory del file eseguibile server prima di eseguire il processo server.
