Subject: IPC over PTY

Hi list!

I would be most grateful for your help.

I am having trouble transferring data between two processes over pseudo
terminal (PTY) master/slave connection. I send data from the slave process
to the master process with no problem. However, when I try to send data in
the opposite direction, the data sent from the master process ends up in the
receiver thread of the master process while the slave receiver thread
remains blocked. I found one of the earlier discussions on pseudo terminals
(http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-07/msg01270.html), but I didn't find
any replies to this question.

I would appreciate it very much if someone could say something on this
problem or send a code example of a working master/slave PTY connection.

Thanks & regards,
Branko
