Detailed Description

Abstract base class for UNIX FIFOs.

UNIX FIFOs are also known Named Pipes, which are totally unrelated to Win32 Named Pipes. If you want to use a local IPC mechanism that will be portable to both UNIX and Win32, take a look at the <ACE_SPIPE_*> classes.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_FIFO::ACE_FIFO ( void   )  [protected]

Default constructor.

ACE_FIFO::ACE_FIFO ( const ACE_TCHAR rendezvous,
int  flags,
mode_t  perms,
LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES  sa = 0 
) [protected]

Open up the named pipe on the <rendezvous> in accordance with the flags.


Member Function Documentation

int ACE_FIFO::close ( void   )

int ACE_FIFO::open ( const ACE_TCHAR rendezvous,
int  flags,
mode_t  perms,
LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES  sa = 0 
)

Open up the named pipe on the <rendezvous> in accordance with the flags.

Reimplemented in ACE_FIFO_Send, and ACE_FIFO_Send_Msg.
