Using Named Pipes

Named Pipes is a facility for interprocess communication. Named Pipes can be used for communication between processes on the same computer or on different computers.

Adaptive Server Anywhere for Windows NT/2000/XP uses local Named Pipes for same-machine communication.

For more information, see Supported network protocols.

Adaptive Server Anywhere does not use Named Pipes for client/server communications between different machines.
