I'm making a Perl program, and someone else is writing a C++ program, and both will run on the same MS-Windows machine at the same time.

What is a good way to have the two programs communicate?

I'm asking because until now I've only programmed for Linux machines, and I used to use named pipes for IPC (Interprocess communication) because they were easy to use and made the Perl programs much shorter than with TCP/IP sockets.

Does MS-Windows support named pipes in a similar way to Linux? Are there any modules that you would recommend for Windows IPC?

Thanks,
- Karjala
