[fpc-devel] simpleipc under Linux

[Mattias Gaertner]

Hi,

SimpleIPC under Linux always creates the pipe file under /tmp/.

packages/fcl-process/src/unix/simpleipc.inc

constructor TPipeClientComm.Create(AOWner: TSimpleIPCClient);

Var
  D : String;

begin
  inherited Create(AOWner);
  FFileName:=Owner.ServerID;
  If (Owner.ServerInstance<>'') then
    FFileName:=FFileName+'-'+Owner.ServerInstance;
  D:='/tmp/'; // Change to something better later
  FFileName:=D+FFileName;
end;

Can this be made optional, for example to this:

constructor TPipeClientComm.Create(AOWner: TSimpleIPCClient);

begin
  inherited Create(AOWner);
  FFileName:=Owner.ServerID;
  If (Owner.ServerInstance<>'') then
    FFileName:=FFileName+'-'+Owner.ServerInstance;
  if FFileName[1]<>'/' then
    FFileName:='/tmp/'+FFileName;
end;


Should I create a mantis issue?
