c++ - Regulating IPC between two processes with mutex -

i working on project creates 2 processes , want regulate ipc between them.

the processes created createproces function, , want utilize mutex ipc.

in linux semaphores, have read ipc in windows have utilize mutex.

in windows can't seem work. first create treads this:

createprocess(ipapplicationname, null, null, null, false, create_new_console, null, null, &startinfo, &processinfo); createprocess(ipapplicationname, null, null, null, false, create_new_console, null, null, &startinfo2, &processinfo2);

the processes start normal when remove releasemutex phone call 1 process won't kept waiting in process. here process one:

volatile handle hmutex; // global hmutex object int main() { hmutex=createmutex(null,false,null); while(1) { waitforsingleobject(hmutex,infinite); printf("thread writing database...\n"); sleep(2000); releasemutex(hmutex); } homecoming 0; }

in process 2 open mutex open mutex , comment releasemutex (so stuck here, testing. maintain on going):

int main() { while(1) { handle hmutex; hmutex=openmutex(mutex_all_access,false,mutexname); waitforsingleobject(hmutex,infinite); printf("thread writing database22...\n"); sleep(2000); //releasemutex(hmutex); } homecoming 0; }

can tell me doing wrong?

you create anonymous mutex using createmutex, seek find name

c++ process synchronization ipc
