However, the next version of Cygwin will use standard DuplicateHandle calls as for normal file handles. Consequentially your your test application appears to work with a Cygwin built from CVS:
But MSDN says: You should not use DuplicateHandle to duplicate handles to the following objects: * I/O completion ports. No error is returned, but the duplicate handle cannot be used. * Sockets. No error is returned, but the duplicate handle may not be recognized by Winsock at the target process. Also, using DuplicateHandle interferes with internal reference counting on the underlying object. To duplicate a socket handle, use the WSADuplicateSocket function. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
