ok i need some major help with my program. I am trying to create 2 process in main and then have them communicate via a pipe. the problem right now is occuring whenever i create my first process. Within the process I am simply just printing a sentence. For some reason though my program only outputs 8 charcters and then a bunch of garbage. Here is my code. any help is greatly appreciated #include #include #include #include #include #include #include HANDLE readpipe,writepipe; SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES pipeSA; STARTUPINFO srcStartInfo, sinkStartInfo; PROCESS_INFORMATION sourceinfo, sinkinfo; void main() { //create pipe pipeSA.nLength = sizeof(SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES); pipeSA.bInheritHandle = true; pipeSA.lpSecurityDescriptor = NULL; if(!CreatePipe(&readpipe, &writepipe, &pipeSA, 0)){printf("ERROR");ExitProcess(1);} char * sourcename = "source.exe"; char * sinkname = "sink.exe"; //Create Process source; ZeroMemory(&srcStartInfo,sizeof(STARTUPINFO)); srcStartInfo.cb = sizeof(srcStartInfo); srcStartInfo.hStdOutput = writepipe; srcStartInfo.hStdInput = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE); srcStartInfo.hStdError = GetStdHandle(STD_ERROR_HANDLE); srcStartInfo.dwFlags = STARTF_USESTDHANDLES; if(!CreateProcess(NULL,sourcename,NULL, NULL, false, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS ,NULL, NULL, &srcStartInfo, &sourceinfo)){printf("error creating source");ExitProcess(1);} //create process sink ZeroMemory(&sinkStartInfo,sizeof(STARTUPINFO)); sinkStartInfo.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO); sinkStartInfo.hStdInput = readpipe; sinkStartInfo.hStdError = GetStdHandle(STD_ERROR_HANDLE); sinkStartInfo.dwFlags = STARTF_USESTDHANDLES; if(!CreateProcess(NULL,sinkname,NULL, NULL, false, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS,NULL, NULL, &sinkStartInfo, &sinkinfo)){printf("error creating sink");ExitProcess(1);}
