Huh, IMO, the translation is ok. The problem is that the method ask for a memory buffer and I give a pipe. > but for me named pipes work very well for many kinds of interprocess > communication. Yes, for example, mpg123 library is very happy with this: PipeBufferSize := $4000 ; CreatePipeHandles(InHandle, OutHandle, PipeBufferSize); InPipe := TInputPipeStream.Create(InHandle); OutPipe := TOutputPipeStream.Create(OutHandle); httpget := TThreadHttpGetter.Create(opus_url,OutPipe); mpg123_open_handle(AHandle, Pointer(InPipe)); But for Opus library, there is error while using: op_test_memory(pointer(InPipe),PipeBufferSize, Err); Like Michael explained, the buffer of the pipe must be entered. And I do not know how to do this... ;-( Fre;D ----- Many thanks ;-) -- View this message in context: http://free-pascal-general.1045716.n5.nabble.com/Pipe-vs-Memory-buffer-tp5727435p5727446.html Sent from the Free Pascal - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
