No need to worry, the Lazarus code is outdated. That fix is already in FPC 2.6.4 too, and any FPC release after that. I've been using SimplyIPC for many things and it has worked very well. eg: Implementing a single instance application feature. The second instance will detected the IPC comms, and use it to tell the first instance what to do (eg: open another file), then the second instance will terminate. I've also implemented a visual logging/debugging program, using simpleIPC, to overcome some shortcomings of Lazarus+GDB debugging. Think Raize Software's CodeSite product for Delphi (but not as advanced). In this tool I did notice one issue with SimpleIPC under Windows only. When I fired 100's of log events per second, under Windows, I lost some messages. I believe I did file a bug report on this. It was some 5-6 years ago, and it was a very specific case. For day-to-day usage, SimpleIPC works perfectly though.
