C++使用共享内存实现进程间通信

C++使用共享内存实现进程间通信
文件映射是一种实现进程间单向或双向通信的机制。它允许两个或多个本地进程间相互通信。为了共享文件或内存，所有的进程必须使用相同的文件映射的名字或是句柄。
为了实现共享文件，第一个进程先调用CreateFile方法。接下来调用CreateFileMapping方法来创建一个文件映射对象。并为文件映射指明一个句柄和名称。由于事件，信号，互斥对象和文件映射等这些内核对象都共享同一个名字空间，所以如果这个名字和其他一个对象的名称重名的话那么将创建失败。
为了实现共享内存，进程应首先调用CreateFileMapping函数然后在hFile参数中传入INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE宏来替代句柄。相应的文件映射对象会从系统的分页文件中获得一段内存。如果hFile参数的值是INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE，那么你在调用CreateFileMapping时必须给共享内存指定一个大小值。
使用共享内存或文件的进程必须使用MapViewOfFile函数或MapViewOfFileEx函数来创建一个文件视图。
下面我们创建一个名称为"Local\SampleMap"的文件映射对象，并将一个字符串写入到文件映射中。
我们将创建两个程序，一个是服务程序，一个是客户程序。服务程序负责创建文件映射。
服务程序命名为CppFileMappingServer，它的执行过程是
1.创建一个特定大小的文件映射对象，名称为“Local\SampleMap”
2.将这个对象的文件视图映射到进程的地址空间，然后向视图中写入字符串。

接下来执行客户程序CppFileMappingClient，它首先打开这个名称为“Local\SampleMap”的文件映射对象。然后把相同的文件映射视图映射到自己的地址空间中。然后从视图中读取服务进程所写入的数据。
