Mine is not shell stream. It has nothing common with stdin/stdout of shell commands :) There are two kinds of pipe: (a) shell feature (aka out_cmd | in_cmd under unix) and (b) OS object. Win32 pipe objects are described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ipc/base/pipes.asp UNIX pipe function: http://www.umbi.umd.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?pipe+2 UNIX popen/pclose (these functions are close to shell_stream) http://dell5.ma.utexas.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?popen+3 -- Alexander Nasonov Remove minus and all between minus and at from my e-mail for timely response _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
