PeekNamedPipe无法提供正确的可用字节数,只有当句柄来自客户端时才有效

PeekNamedPipe函数文档指出句柄参数可以来自服务器端(CreateNamedPibe)或客户端(CreateFile)。

hNamedPipe[在]管道的手柄。此参数可以是句柄 CreateFile函数,或者它可以是 匿名管道,由CreatePipe函数返回。把手

以下代码有效:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, const char **argv)
{
    wcout << "Creating an instance of a named pipe..." << endl;

    // Create a pipe to send data
    HANDLE pS = CreateNamedPipe(L"\\\\.\\pipe\\my_pipe", PIPE_ACCESS_DUPLEX, 0, 1, 100, 100, 0, NULL);

    // Open the named pipe
    HANDLE pC = CreateFile(L"\\\\.\\pipe\\my_pipe", GENERIC_WRITE | GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);

    if (pC == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
    {
        wcout << "Failed to connect to pipe." << endl;
        return 1;
    }

    wcout << "Test PeekNamedPipe #1." << endl;
    DWORD PipeByteNum = 0;
    BOOL res = PeekNamedPipe(pC, NULL, 0, NULL, &PipeByteNum, NULL);
    if(!res)
    {
          wcout << "PeekNamedPipe() - failed." << endl;
          return 1;
    }
    wcout << " - Number of bytes in pipe: " << PipeByteNum << endl << endl;

    wcout << "Sending data to pipe..." << endl;

   const wchar_t *data = L"Hello Pipe World";
   DWORD numBytesWritten = 0;
   BOOL result = WriteFile(pS, data, wcslen(data) * sizeof(wchar_t), &numBytesWritten, NULL);

    if (result)
      wcout << "Number of bytes sent: " << numBytesWritten << endl;
    else
    {
      wcout << "Failed to send data." << endl;
      return 1;
    }

    wcout << "Test PeekNamedPipe #2." << endl;
    PipeByteNum = 0;
    res = PeekNamedPipe(pC, NULL, 0, NULL, &PipeByteNum, NULL);
    if(!res)
    {
          wcout << "PeekNamedPipe() - failed." << endl;
          return 1;
    }
    wcout << " - Number of bytes in pipe: " << PipeByteNum << endl << endl;

    wcout << "Reading data from pipe..." << endl;

    // The read operation will block until there is data to read
    wchar_t buffer[128];
    DWORD numBytesRead = 0;
    result = ReadFile(pC, buffer, 5 * sizeof(wchar_t), &numBytesRead, NULL);

    if (result)
    {
      buffer[numBytesRead / sizeof(wchar_t)] = '\0'; // null terminate the string
      wcout << "Number of bytes read: " << numBytesRead << endl;
      wcout << "Message: " << buffer << endl;
    }
    else
    {
      wcout << "Failed to read data from the pipe." << endl;
      return 1;
    }

    wcout << "Test PeekNamedPipe #3." << endl;
    PipeByteNum = 0;
    res = PeekNamedPipe(pC, NULL, 0, NULL, &PipeByteNum, NULL);
    if(!res)
    {
          wcout << "PeekNamedPipe() - failed." << endl;
          return 1;
    }
    wcout << " - Number of bytes in pipe: " << PipeByteNum << endl << endl;

    // Close client.
    CloseHandle(pC);
    wcout << "Done with client." << endl;

    // Close the pipe.
    CloseHandle(pS);
    wcout << "Done with server." << endl;

    return 0;
}

Creating an instance of a named pipe...
Test PeekNamedPipe #1.
 - Number of bytes in pipe: 0

Sending data to pipe...
Number of bytes sent: 32
Test PeekNamedPipe #2.
 - Number of bytes in pipe: 32

Reading data from pipe...
Number of bytes read: 10
Message: Hello
Test PeekNamedPipe #3.
 - Number of bytes in pipe: 22

Done with client.
Done with server.

现在,如果我给PeekNamedPipe提供pS(服务器句柄)而不是pC(客户端句柄),则可用字节数始终为0。

输出变为:
