Named pipes in threads

[Philippe C. Martin]

HI,

I currently have a "working" script that uses sockets to handle threads
communications - the problem is that it gives me obvious problems in handling
free ports (launching the script more than once ....).

Is thread named pipes communication allowed ?

Regards,

Philippe

Who is communicating with whom? Threads communicating with other
threads in the same process? Threads communicating with a peer
external to the process? What "obvious problems" are you having?

What happened when you tried it?

What are you trying to do? Perhaps if you backed up and described
the "what" we could make better recommendations about the "how."

Replace the sockets with a queue of strings.

Write your Send and Recv functions in terms of Queue.get() and Queue.put();[color=blue]
