Windows Named Pipe Server

Windows Named Pipe Server

Under Microsoft Windows, applications often perform IPC (inter-process communications) using named pipes. The Pipe Server plugin lets you create a server-side pipe for the client to connect to, for testing named pipe communications.

For obvious reasons, this plugin is only available on Microsoft Windows.

The Pipe Server plugin allows you to accept and maintain multiple incoming connections at the same time. You can select which client to talk to, and if the log gets too messy — apply a filter and leave only the conversation with a particular client while hiding everything else.
