C#使用命名管道通过网络在进程之间进行通信

from MSDN

命名管道提供的功能比匿名管道多。 其功能包括通过网络进行全双工通信和多个服务器实例；基于消息的通信；以及客户端模拟，这使得连接进程可在远程服务器上使用其自己的权限集。

下面的示例演示如何使用 NamedPipeServerStream 类创建命名管道。 在此示例中，服务器进程创建了四个线程。 每个线程可以接受一个客户端连接。 连接的客户端进程随后向服务器提供一个文件名。 如果客户端具有足够的权限，服务器进程就会打开文件并将其内容发送回客户端。

下面的示例演示使用 NamedPipeClientStream 类的客户端进程。   客户端连接服务器进程并向服务器发送一个文件名。   该示例使用模拟，所以运行客户端应用程序的标识必须具有访问文件的权限。   服务器随后将文件内容发送回客户端。   文件内容随后显示在控制台上。

此示例中的客户端进程和服务器进程预期在同一台计算机上运行，因此提供给 NamedPipeClientStream 对象的服务器名称是 "."。   如果客户端进程和服务器进程位于不同的计算机上，则应该用运行服务器进程的计算机的网络名称来替换 "."。
