CreateNamedPipe error values?

Feb. 12, 2003

      I wrote a humble beginning of a conformance test for
named pipes, in hopes of preventing regressions like the one which
is currently breaking Installshield installs (or was last I checked).

Later it's going to verify that named pipes like
the ones Wine uses internally (e.g. in ole32/rpc.c) actually work,
For now I thought I'd just make sure we return the right
error code if you pass a bogus filename to CreateNamedPipe.
But, um, we don't return any error code; we happily succeed.

Can somebody who has Windows Server run this little test,
and tell me what it outputs?  You can build it as part
of the wine test suite, or standalone with the commands

call \vcvars32.bat
cl /D STANDALONE /D _X86_ /D _M_IX86 /D WIN32 /D _WINDOWS pipe.c

Thanks,
Dan
