Note that this patch is slightly different from the one I previously posted, in that it tries to address the crash when closing pipes. Perhaps you tried the previous instead of this one? If not, I don't really understand why it crashes for you. I can assure that it works when compiling with mingw (and it has always worked, even previously). It also works on any other platform I have access to. So, I am afraid that you have to debug this. Some info (that could be useful for you) follows. I had firstly tried to use QFile::open(), QFile::read(), and QFile::write(), but it didn't work (I was not so surprised, given the Qt reliability in this area). Thus, I decided to go for the corresponding standard ISO functions. This way, it worked flawlessly. Then, I noticed that open(), close(), read(), and write() were deprecated by MS in favor of _open() and company, so I took that into account. Maybe you can try what happens when using the functions without the leading underscore. I tried both versions with mingw and both worked. Maybe there could be a difference with msvc, but I don't have msvc installed (and don't want to install it), so I cannot test. Good luck! -- Enrico
