PipeExec Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

PipeExec provides an easy way to start and interact with a process over Stdin, Stdout, and Stderr.

Syntax

PipeExec

Remarks

The PipeExec component provides a way to launch a process and then send/receive data to/from the process. To begin set ProcessFileName to the path of the process on disk. Optionally set ProcessArgs and ProcessWorkingDir.

Call StartProcess to start the process. Next set Stdin or call Send to send data to the process. Received data will be provided through the Stdout and Stderr events.

To terminate the process call StopProcess.

Example Code Pipeexec exec = new Pipeexec(); exec.OnStdout += exec_OnStdout; exec.ProcessFileName = @"C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe"; exec.ProcessArgs = "/Q"; exec.StartProcess(); exec.Stdin = "dir" + System.Environment.NewLine; while (true) //Wait for output exec.DoEvents(); static void exec_OnStdout(object sender, PipeexecStdoutEventArgs e) { Console.WriteLine(e.Text); }

AcceptData Property (PipeExec Class)

Enables or disables data reception (the Stdout and Stderr events).

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetAcceptData();
int SetAcceptData(int bAcceptData);

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetAcceptData();
INT SetAcceptData(BOOL bAcceptData);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_getacceptdata(void* lpObj);
int ipworksipc_pipeexec_setacceptdata(void* lpObj, int bAcceptData);

bool GetAcceptData();
int SetAcceptData(bool bAcceptData);

Default Value

TRUE

Remarks

This property enables or disables data reception (the Stdout and Stderr events). Setting this property to False, temporarily disables data reception. Setting this property to True, re-enables data reception.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

BytesSent Property (PipeExec Class)

The number of bytes actually sent after an assignment to Stdin.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetBytesSent();

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetBytesSent();

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_getbytessent(void* lpObj);

int GetBytesSent();

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property indicates how many bytes were sent after the last assignment to Stdin. Please check the Stdin property for more information.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Integer

EOL Property (PipeExec Class)

This property is used to break the incoming data stream into chunks separated by EOL .

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetEOL(char* &lpEOL, int &lenEOL);
int SetEOL(const char* lpEOL, int lenEOL);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetEOL(LPSTR &lpEOL, INT &lenEOL);
INT SetEOL(LPCSTR lpEOL, INT lenEOL);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_geteol(void* lpObj, char** lpEOL, int* lenEOL);
int ipworksipc_pipeexec_seteol(void* lpObj, const char* lpEOL, int lenEOL);

QByteArray GetEOL();
int SetEOL(QByteArray qbaEOL);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is used to define boundaries in the input stream using the value of the property.

This property is especially useful with ASCII files. Setting it to CRLF ("\r\n") enables the incoming ASCII text stream to split into defined lines. In this case, one event is fired for each line received (as well as in packet boundaries). The CRLF ("\r\n") bytes are discarded.

This property is a binary string. Notably, this means that it can be more than one byte long, and it can contain NULL bytes.

Data Type

Binary String

ProcessArgs Property (PipeExec Class)

The arguments to pass to the process.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetProcessArgs();

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetProcessWorkingDir();
int SetProcessWorkingDir(const char* lpszProcessWorkingDir);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetProcessWorkingDir();
INT SetProcessWorkingDir(LPCWSTR lpszProcessWorkingDir);

char* ipworksipc_pipeexec_getprocessworkingdir(void* lpObj);
int ipworksipc_pipeexec_setprocessworkingdir(void* lpObj, const char* lpszProcessWorkingDir);

QString GetProcessWorkingDir();
int SetProcessWorkingDir(QString qsProcessWorkingDir);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property optionally specifies the working directory in which the process will run.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

SingleLineMode Property (PipeExec Class)

This property includes a special mode for line-oriented protocols.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSingleLineMode();
int SetSingleLineMode(int bSingleLineMode);

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetSingleLineMode();
INT SetSingleLineMode(BOOL bSingleLineMode);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_getsinglelinemode(void* lpObj);
int ipworksipc_pipeexec_setsinglelinemode(void* lpObj, int bSingleLineMode);

bool GetSingleLineMode();
int SetSingleLineMode(bool bSingleLineMode);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

When this property is set to True, the class treats the incoming data stream as lines separated by carriage return line feed (CRLF), CR, or LF. The EOL property is ignored.

When this property is set to True, AcceptData automatically will be set to False. Please refer to the GetLine method for more information.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

Stdin Property (PipeExec Class)

A string of data to be sent over the connected pipe.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int SetStdin(const char* lpStdin, int lenStdin);

Unicode (Windows)
INT SetStdin(LPCSTR lpStdin, INT lenStdin);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_setstdin(void* lpObj, const char* lpStdin, int lenStdin);

int SetStdin(QByteArray qbaStdin);

Default Value

""

Remarks

Assigning a string to this property makes the class send the string to the server over Stdin. The Send method provides similar functionality.

When Timeout is set to 0 the class will behave asynchronously. If you are sending data to the receiving process faster than it can process it, the outgoing queue might fill up. When this happens, the class fails with error 10035: "[10035] Operation would block" (WSAEWOULDBLOCK). You can check this error, and then try to send the data again. The BytesSent property shows how many bytes were sent (if any). If 0 bytes were sent, then you can wait for the ReadyToSend event before attempting to send data again. (However, please note that ReadyToSend is not fired when part of the data is successfully sent).

This property is write-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Binary String

Timeout Property (PipeExec Class)

A timeout for the class.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetTimeout();
INT SetTimeout(INT iTimeout);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_gettimeout(void* lpObj);
int ipworksipc_pipeexec_settimeout(void* lpObj, int iTimeout);

int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with a WOULDBLOCK error if data cannot be sent immediately.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, data is sent in a blocking manner and the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control. The class will handle any potential WOULDBLOCK errors internally and automatically retry the operation for a maximum of Timeout seconds.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

Config Method (PipeExec Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);

char* ipworksipc_pipeexec_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);

QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

DoEvents Method (PipeExec Class)

Processes events from the internal message queue.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int DoEvents();

Unicode (Windows)
INT DoEvents();

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_doevents(void* lpObj);

int DoEvents();

Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

GetLine Method (PipeExec Class)

This method gets a line of text from the server.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetLine();

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetLine();

char* ipworksipc_pipeexec_getline(void* lpObj);

QString GetLine();

Remarks

This method gets a line of text from the server. This method is an alternative method of receiving data for line-oriented protocols. The class will block if necessary and then will return the received line. AcceptData will be set automatically to True when the method is called, and then will be set to False after a line is received.

Please refer to the SingleLineMode property for more information.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

Interrupt Method (PipeExec Class)

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Send(const char* lpText, int lenText);

Unicode (Windows)
INT Send(LPCSTR lpText, INT lenText);

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_send(void* lpObj, const char* lpText, int lenText);

int Send(QByteArray qbaText);

Remarks

This method sends data to the server. Calling this method is equivalent to setting the Stdin property to Text.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

SendFile Method (PipeExec Class)

Sends the file over the connected pipe.

Syntax

• C++
• C

int ipworksipc_pipeexec_sendstdinbytes(void* lpObj, const char* lpData, int lenData);

int SendStdinBytes(QByteArray qbaData);

Remarks

This method sends the specified binary data to the server over Stdin. To send text, use the SendStdinText method instead.

When Timeout is set to 0 the class will behave asynchronously. If you are sending data to the receiving process faster than it can process it, the outgoing queue might fill up. When this happens, the class fails with error 10035: "[10035] Operation would block" (WSAEWOULDBLOCK). You can check this error, and then try to send the data again. The BytesSent property shows how many bytes were sent (if any). If 0 bytes were sent, then you can wait for the ReadyToSend event before attempting to send data again. (However, please note that ReadyToSend is not fired when part of the data is successfully sent).

Stderr Event (PipeExec Class)

Fired when data come in through stderr.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireStderr(PipeExecStderrEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Text;
  int lenText;
  int EOL;
  int reserved;
} PipeExecStderrEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireStderr(PipeExecStderrEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCSTR Text;
  INT lenText;
  BOOL EOL;
  INT reserved;
} PipeExecStderrEventParams;

#define EID_PIPEEXEC_STDERR 3

virtual INT IPWORKSIPC_CALL FireStderr(LPSTR &lpText, INT &lenText, BOOL &bEOL);

Stdout Event (PipeExec Class)

Fired when data come in through stdout.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireStdout(PipeExecStdoutEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Text;
  int lenText;
  int EOL;
  int reserved;

};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Stdout(PipeExecStdoutEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass PipeExec and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireStdout(PipeExecStdoutEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Stdout event is fired every time the process outputs a line in its standard output. The incoming data is provided through the Text parameter.

EOL indicates whether or not the EOL string was found at the end of Text. If the EOL string was found, then EOL is True.

If Text is part of a data portion of length larger than MaxLineLength with no EOL strings in it, then EOL is False. Note: This means that one or more DataIn events with EOL set to False can be received during a connection.

If the EOL property is "" (empty string), then EOL can be disregarded (it is always True).
