Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

The PIPEINFO structure contains named-pipe information retrieved by using
the DosQNmPipeInfo function. The length of the structure varies depending on
the length of the szName field.
