Hi,
I am new to cygwin.I
am creating a windows named pipe using the normal windows
api.
In the cygwin
documetation it is said that select call works for file descriptors,handles
etc.Can I able to pass this handle directly to a select
call?
if no can I use
cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd() provided by cygwin to convert it to a file
descriptor?
If yes what is the
first parameter i need to pass to this method?
Further can i be
able to use the descriptor returned by this method in a select
call?
Alternatly,is there
any way in which i can implement named pipes in cygwin(like
fifo's)?
