Inter Process Communication Problem in win32
Hi guys, I'm using Windows XP with MS Visual Studio 2003.
I need to make use of mutex on two different apps, I tried to use CreateMutex , OpenMutex, Release and WaitForSingleObject... But I 've an error when I try to run the apps:
The app which calls OpenMutex gets an error when It tries to "ReleaseMutex", the error says that It cannot release the mutex because the mutex was created on another thread....
Can anyone help me please?
Tks in advance jose

Can you please explain what do you mean by: "I need to make use of mutex on two different apps"?
Please give us more details, what do you want to achieve.
Cheers

Well,
I'm hacking something on a media player program, I need to sync its audio with another application I developed, what I tried to do was to communicate between them using pipes (sending the audio samples)... The problem is: the player rights faster that my program reads... I need a mutex so I can sync both apps...
tks in advance
