In the CONNX code for kill() I see:
sprintf(szEventName, "CONNX_SIGNAL_%x", (int) lPID);
sprintf(szSharedMemoryName, "CONNX_SMEM_%x", (int) lPID);
hSharedMemory = OpenFileMapping(FILE_MAP_ALL_ACCESS, FALSE, szSharedMemoryName);
if (hSharedMemory) {
/* Call the signal handle for that process.. */
void *pData = MapViewOfFile(hSharedMemory, FILE_MAP_ALL_ACCESS, 0,
0, sizeof(int));
if (pData) {
int nReturn;
HANDLE hProcessHandle;
DWORD ExitCode;
*(int *) pData = nSignal;
UnmapViewOfFile(pData);
/* Open the event handle of the other process */
hEvent = OpenEvent(EVENT_MODIFY_STATE | SYNCHRONIZE, FALSE, szEventName);
hProcessHandle = OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION, FALSE, lPID);
if (hEvent) {
SetEvent(hEvent);
/* Wait for Event to be processed. */
do {
nReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent, 0);
Now, I am no Win32 programmer, but the mixture of OpenFileMapping() and
OpenEvent() looked promising. :-)
