security, pipes, gmake

[Ram Subbaroyan]

I have 3 unrelated questions

1) Is there any doc that explains security on NT as regargds to the C-Run time
library. What if I have code that uses both the WIN32 api and C run time
libaray to read same file. How do the Win32 access rights map on the the C-run
time library?

2) Are there binaries for GNU make on the net somewhere?

3) Can one thread open a pipe in message mode for reading at one one end but have
multiple threads writing at the other end to the same instance of the pipe. I do
not want to close and reopen the pipe everytime.

Thanks for your help.

I'm sure I saw someplace in the the Win32 API help in VC++ says that's a >bad
idea<! As I remember, using the 2 API's interchangably will result in loss of
concurrence of the data.

Why not just have multiple threads, each of which read from a single pipe?
