• sneakyfeline WriteFile() on pipe hangs

  I've seen a number of threads concerning WriteFile()'s tendency to hang in unexpected places, but none of the situations were quite like mine: I've created a named, non-overlapped pipe to another process's standard I/O (the process is on the same machine). This other process echoes all data received on its STDIN to its STDOUT. It does this in a very simple loop with fread() an ...Show All
