hi all,

i wanted to find out the actual amount of bytes that can be
written to a piped output stream that is connected to a
piped input stream.

i want to do that to keep buffer size fix, and data is
written by one thread and read by another.

Thanx

If you look at the source code, you will find that this buffer is 1024 bytes. There is no way to change it without recompiling the piped streams. I usually want more control of my buffers. I also don't like the interface on piped streams. I wrote my own circular buffer classes: http://ostermiller.org/utils/CircularBuffer.html
