Creating files in memory

    VC does not provide anything that creates files in memory.

    The Windows operating system will allow us to create memory-mapped files that are backed by the paging space. That is a very common and efficient way to do IPC. Look in the Platform SDK, including the IPC section. Also use the Windows programming newsgroups and other web sites such as CodeProject and CodeGuru. Since VC does not support what you are asking about, the subject is off-topic for this forum.
