The ZwCreateNamedPipeFile call is not exported to the kernel, and is
undocumented in any case. Why anyone would ever think of using a named
pipe between a driver and an application is beyond me.

Or a similar funtion, that is...
Since there is a kernel mode equivalent to CreateFile() - named
ZwCreateFile() - I thought that it would be nice to have kernel
support for named pipes, not only files.
Especially for pipes between kernel-mode drivers and user-mode
applications.
Is there such a beast? Or am I just expecting too much? :-)
Thanks,
Don
