    Cross-platform socketpair functionality

  


  


    

    

    

  



This crate wraps [`socketpair`] with `AF_UNIX` platforms, and emulates this

interface using `CreateNamedPipe` on Windows.

It has a "stream" interface, which corresponds to `SOCK_STREAM` and

`PIPE_TYPE_BYTE`, and a "seqpacket" interface, which corresponds to

`SOCK_SEQPACKET` and `PIPE_TYPE_MESSAGE`.

## Example

```rust

let (mut a, mut b) = socketpair_stream()?;

writeln!(a, "hello world")?;

let mut buf = [0_u8; 4096];

let n = b.read(&mut buf)?;

assert_eq!(str::from_utf8(&buf[..n]).unwrap(), "hello world\n");

```

Support for async-std and tokio is temporarily disabled until those crates

contain the needed implementations of the I/O safety traits.
