Create a pair of pipe stream.
Source position: pipes.pp line 54
procedure CreatePipeStreams( |
var InPipe: TInputPipeStream; |
var OutPipe: TOutputPipeStream |
); |
InPipe |
|
Contains the read end of the pipe on return |
OutPipe |
|
Contains the write end of the pipe on return. |
CreatePipeStreams creates a set of pipe file descriptors with CreatePipeHandles, and if that call is successful, a pair of streams is created: InPipe and OutPipe.
On some systems (notably: windows) the size of the buffer to be used for communication between 2 ends of the buffer can be specified in the APipeBufferSize parameter. This parameter is ignored on systems that do not support setting the buffer size.
If no pipe handles could be created, an EPipeCreation exception is raised.
