From: Jiansong Li Date: 2005-02-21T00:39:01+09:00 Subject: communicate with named pipe I am a newbie of this mailing place but I want to draw a gui for other program via ruby. That program is written by C++ and creaded two pipe: mkfifo(read_str,0600) readfd=open(read_str,O_RDWR) mkfifo(write_str,0600) writefd=open(write_str,O_RDWR). I serched all the subject through the mailing list but can't find useful information to help me create a named pipe. Who can give me a hand?
