Mono.Unix.UnixPipes.Reading Field

A Mono.Unix.UnixStream instance that reads any data written to the UnixPipes.Writing stream. [Edit]

public UnixStream Reading

Remarks

A pipe that has had an end closed is considered widowed. Writing on such a pipe causes the writing process to receive a Mono.Unix.Native.Signum.SIGPIPE signal. Widowing a pipe is the only way to deliver end-of-file to a reader: after the reader consumes any buffered data, reading a widowed pipe returns a zero count. [Edit]
