Concurrently using FT_WritePipe and FT_ReadPipe within their own threads
« on: June 26, 2023, 02:42:39 PM »
1. Is it allowed to have 2 threads, one writing with synchronous FT_WritePipe and the other reading with synchronous FT_ReadPipe?

2. Will synchronous FT_WritePipe in one thread be blocked by synchronous FT_ReadPipe in the other thread and vice verca?

3. Is it allowed to have 2 threads, one writing with asynchronous FT_WritePipe and the other reading with asynchronous FT_ReadPipe?

[Ans] Yes. In fact, write and read should have independent threads.
