[...]Has anyone successfully used asio and Windows named pipes? If so, would you be willing to share some sample code that demonstrates the functionality?
I've used asynchronous operations with named pipes in Boost.Process. The named pipe is hidden within Boost.Process and not exposed by the library (this is something which will probably change). The code however works. I wrote an article about Boost.Process only a few days ago. There is a sample with Boost.Asio at http://www.highscore.de/cpp/process/index.html#communicating. Here's the code which I use to create a named pipe: https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/process/boost/process/detail/pipe.hp... (search for BOOST_PROCESS_WINDOWS_USE_NAMED_PIPE). HTH, Boris
