Named pipes provide interprocess communication between a pipe server and one or more pipe clients. They offer more functionality than anonymous pipes, which provide interprocess communication on a local computer. Named pipes support full duplex communication over a network and multiple server instances, message-based communication, and client impersonation, which enables connecting processes to use their own set of permissions on remote servers.

To implement name pipes, use the NamedPipeServerStream and NamedPipeClientStream classes.

that's some classes, no any detail.

To implement name pipes, use the NamedPipeServerStream and NamedPipeClientStream classes.

Those classes are from the managed world of .NET

The search for pipe in the old forum posted above yields eight pages of results. The six_L we had in the old forum was perfectly able to read and write, even about named pipes...
