Reads and writes to a named pipe in one network operation
#include <NamedPipes.au3>
_NamedPipes_TransactNamedPipe ( $hNamedPipe, $pInpBuf, $iInpSize, $pOutBuf, $iOutSize [, $tOverlapped = 0] )
| $hNamedPipe | The handle to the named pipe |
| $pInpBuf | Pointer to the buffer containing the data to be written to the pipe |
| $iInpSize | Size of the write buffer, in bytes |
| $pOutBuf | Pointer to the buffer that receives the data read from the pipe |
| $iOutSize | Size of the read buffer, in bytes |
| $tOverlapped | [optional] a $tagOVERLAPPED structure. This structure is required if $hNamedPipe was opened with $PIPE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED. If $hNamedPipe was opened with $PIPE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, $tOverlapped must not be 0. If $hNamedPipe was opened with $PIPE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED and $tOverlapped is not 0, _NamedPipes_TransactNamedPipe() is executed as an overlapped operation. The $tagOVERLAPPED structure should contain a manual reset event object. If the operation cannot be completed immediately, _NamedPipes_TransactNamedPipe() returns False and _WinAPI_GetLastError() will return ERROR_IO_PENDING. |
| Success: | the number of bytes read from the pipe. |
| Failure: | sets the @error flag to non-zero. |
TransactNamedPipe fails if the server did not create the pipe as a message-type pipe or if the pipe handle is not in message-read mode.
