Named pipes

Hello,

I have a question regarding to named pipes. I want to make a log application which sends the log data over named pipes. Now I have searched in the msdn documentation, but I'm not sure if the WriteFile functions takes care that the whole message is written to the pipe before the next WriteFile succeeds (it is possible that more threads have handle to this pipe.
Anyone knows what happens in this case? What is the difference between PIPE_TYPE_MESSAGE and PIPE_TYPE_BYTE?

Best regards
Hansjrg
