ReadHandle property

Project: I/O Utility Classes

Unit: PJPipe

Class: TPJPipe

Applies to: ~>1.0

property ReadHandle: THandle;

Description

This read only property provides access to the Windows handle used to read data from the pipe.

This handle can be passed to file reading routines that take a handle as a parameter, such as those provided in Delphi’s SysUtils and Windows units. Alternatively, if you want to read from the pipe via a TStream object, create a THandleStream instance for the handle.

Remarks

Do not pass this handle to any Windows API function that may alter it (e.g. CloseHandle).
