Just thought I'd share an observation I found interesting. Not a problem for me, so not asking for any particular response.
If I create a named pipe (mkfifo), as long as I write to and read from using either 32-bit Cygwin or 64-bit Cygwin, all works fine, but if I write with either one and read with the other, both processes hang. It doesn't seem to matter whether the fifo was created under 32-bit or 64-bit, the problem (if I may be so bold as to call it that) seems only with mixing 32-/64-bit versions doing I/O to/from it. FWIW, using 32-bit version 1.7.29-2 and 64-bit version 1.7.30-1. -Ken Nellis -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
