lib.rs:

Named-Pipe is a wrapper for overlapped (asyncronous) IO of Windows's named pipes.

Description

You can use wait or wait_all to select(2)-like wait for multiple pending IO operations (which is read/write from/to PipeServer/PipeClient or waiting for new client).

Or you can use ConnectingServer::wait or io::Read and io::Write implementaions for PipeServer and PipeClient for syncronous communication.

For better understanding please refer to [Named Pipes documentation on MSDN] (https://www.google.com/search?q=msdn+named+pipes&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8).

Usage

To create new pipe instance use PipeOptions structure.

To connect to a pipe server use PipeClient structure.
