PipedProcess

C++ helper class to create a child process with redirected std in/out/error streams using the Windows API.

What it does

It can be used to pass arbitrary binary input data to the child process via stdin and retrieve the result data via stdout. Errors can be received via stderr.

What it does not

Currently the class can not be used for asynchronous communication (e.g. messages) to and from the child process.
