AnonymousPipeServerStream.GetClientHandleAsString Method

Definition

Gets the connected AnonymousPipeClientStream object's handle as a string.

public:
 System::String ^ GetClientHandleAsString();
public string GetClientHandleAsString ();
[System.Security.SecurityCritical]
public string GetClientHandleAsString ();
member this.GetClientHandleAsString : unit -> string
[<System.Security.SecurityCritical>]
member this.GetClientHandleAsString : unit -> string
Public Function GetClientHandleAsString () As String

Returns

A string that represents the connected AnonymousPipeClientStream object's handle.

Attributes

Examples

The following example demonstrates a way to send a string from a parent process to a child process by using anonymous pipes. In this example, an AnonymousPipeServerStream object is created in a parent process with a PipeDirection value of Out.

Remarks

The DisposeLocalCopyOfClientHandle method should be called after a client handle has been passed to a client process. If this method is not called, the AnonymousPipeServerStream object will not receive notice when the client disposes of its PipeStream object.
