    CreateProcess() - send to process

    Hi,

    I'm using CreateProcess() to start a new process that is going to record the sound from the sound card, using the following code:

    Code:
    if(CreateProcess("WaveRecorder.exe",				// Application name
    					 procArgs,                // Application arguments
                         0,
                         0,
                         FALSE,
                         CREATE_DEFAULT_ERROR_MODE,
                         0,
                         0,                              // Working directory
                         &siStartupInfo,
                         &piProcessInfo) == FALSE)
    My WaveRecorder is going to need an "Enter" to stop recording. How can I send an "\n" to this process? Because if I try using

    Code:
    		WaitForSingleObject(piProcessInfo.hProcess, 0);
    
    		::CloseHandle(piProcessInfo.hThread);
    		::CloseHandle(piProcessInfo.hProcess);
    I get a running error...

    Best regards,

    Alex.

    ps: Is there a way to send a "\n" through a pipe? If the answer is yes, how can that be done?

    Why did you create a whole new thread to ask the same question a second time? you even got responses on the other one.

    You're right. I could have used the other one, sorry mate.
