The problem with that is differentiating between pipes and sockets. GetFileType() returns FILE_TYPE_PIPE for sockets (ugh). I did find some code in gnulib that used WSAEnumNetworkEvents() to differentiate between them, but I find this quite hacky.
Wouldn't it be possible to call getsockopt(), and if it returns ENOTSOCK (WSAENOTSOCK), then it is a pipe? -- Hannes
