Return a stream @var{fp} for a pipe connected to the standard input of

the first program in the pipeline; @var{fp} is opened for writing.
|

You must have passed @code{PEX_USE_PIPES} to the @code{pex_init} call

The file descriptor underlying @var{fp} is marked not to be inherited

On systems that do not support pipes, this function returns

@code{NULL}, and sets @code{errno} to @code{EINVAL}. If you would

like to write code that is portable to all systems the @code{pex}
|

functions support, consider using @code{pex_input_file} instead.

There are two opportunities for deadlock using

@code{pex_input_pipe}:
|

|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item
|
||||
Most systems' pipes can buffer only a fixed amount of data; a process
|
||||
that writes to a full pipe blocks. Thus, if you write to @file{fp}
|
||||
before starting the first process, you run the risk of blocking when
|
||||
there is no child process yet to read the data and allow you to
|
||||
continue. @code{pex_input_pipe} makes no promises about the
|
||||
size of the pipe's buffer, so if you need to write any data at all
|
||||
before starting the first process in the pipeline, consider using
|
||||
@code{pex_input_file} instead.
|
||||
|
||||
@item
|
||||
Using @code{pex_input_pipe} and @code{pex_read_output} together
|
||||
may also cause deadlock. If the output pipe fills up, so that each
|
||||
program in the pipeline is waiting for the next to read more data, and
|
||||
you fill the input pipe by writing more data to @var{fp}, then there
|
||||
is no way to make progress: the only process that could read data from
|
||||
the output pipe is you, but you are blocked on the input pipe.

Return a stream for a temporary file to pass to the first program in

The name of the input file is chosen according to the same rules

|

|

Return a stream @var{fp} for a pipe connected to the standard input of
|
||||
the first program in the pipeline; @var{fp} is opened for writing.
|
||||
You must have passed @code{PEX_USE_PIPES} to the @code{pex_init} call
|
||||
that returned @var{obj}.
|
||||
|
||||
You must close @var{fp} using @code{fclose} yourself when you have
|
||||
finished writing data to the pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
The file descriptor underlying @var{fp} is marked not to be inherited
|
||||
by child processes.
|
||||
|
||||
On systems that do not support pipes, this function returns
|
||||
@code{NULL}, and sets @code{errno} to @code{EINVAL}. If you would
|
||||
like to write code that is portable to all systems the @code{pex}
|
||||
functions support, consider using @code{pex_input_file} instead.

There are two opportunities for deadlock using

@code{pex_input_pipe}:

@itemize @bullet

@item
|
||||
Most systems' pipes can buffer only a fixed amount of data; a process
|
||||
that writes to a full pipe blocks. Thus, if you write to @file{fp}
|
||||
before starting the first process, you run the risk of blocking when
|
||||
there is no child process yet to read the data and allow you to
|
||||
continue. @code{pex_input_pipe} makes no promises about the
|
||||
size of the pipe's buffer, so if you need to write any data at all
|
||||
before starting the first process in the pipeline, consider using
|
||||
@code{pex_input_file} instead.
|
||||
|
||||
@item
|
||||
Using @code{pex_input_pipe} and @code{pex_read_output} together
|
||||
may also cause deadlock. If the output pipe fills up, so that each
|
||||
program in the pipeline is waiting for the next to read more data, and
|
||||
you fill the input pipe by writing more data to @var{fp}, then there
|
||||
is no way to make progress: the only process that could read data from
|
||||
the output pipe is you, but you are blocked on the input pipe.
