Requirements for using named pipes
The minimum requirement for working with named pipes in ABL is a working knowledge of the UNIX operating system and its shell commands or of the Windows operating system, and of how the non-OpenEdge application you want to communicate with uses pipes. Proficiency in the C programming language is also helpful when working with the named pipe examples in this manual.
