CSNamedPipes
ExampleOpen SourceOriginal
CSNamedPipes is a C# example demonstrating how to use Windows Named Pipes for interprocess communication. Named pipes offer a reliable, bidirectional channel between processes on the same machine — or across a network — without the overhead of sockets or the complexity of shared memory.
The library and sample code cover pipe server creation, client connection, asynchronous reading and writing, and proper teardown.
