尝试使用ERROR_IS_SUBSTED创建失败的命名管道

Question

我从msdn博客中获取了这段代码：

#include <windows.h> 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <tchar.h>

#define BUFSIZE 512

int _tmain(int argc, TCHAR *argv[]) 
{ 
   HANDLE hPipe; 
   LPTSTR lpvMessage=TEXT("Default message from client."); 
   TCHAR  chBuf[BUFSIZE]; 
   BOOL   fSuccess = FALSE; 
   DWORD  cbRead, cbToWrite, cbWritten, dwMode; 
   LPTSTR lpszPipename = TEXT("H:\\Users\\uname\\Documents\\fff.txt"); 

   if( argc > 1 )
      lpvMessage = argv[1];

// Try to open a named pipe; wait for it, if necessary. 

   while (1) 
   { 
      hPipe = CreateFile( 
         lpszPipename,   // pipe name 
         GENERIC_READ |  // read and write access 
         GENERIC_WRITE, 
         0,              // no sharing 
         NULL,           // default security attributes
         OPEN_ALWAYS,  // opens existing pipe 
         0,              // default attributes 
         NULL);          // no template file 

   // Break if the pipe handle is valid. 

      if (hPipe != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) 
         break; 

      // Exit if an error other than ERROR_PIPE_BUSY occurs. 

      if (GetLastError() != ERROR_PIPE_BUSY) 
      {
         _tprintf( TEXT("Could not open pipe. GLE=%d\n"), GetLastError() ); 
         return -1;
      }

      // All pipe instances are busy, so wait for 20 seconds. 

      if ( ! WaitNamedPipe(lpszPipename, 20000)) 
      { 
         printf("Could not open pipe: 20 second wait timed out."); 
         return -1;
      } 
   } 

// The pipe connected; change to message-read mode. 

   dwMode = PIPE_READMODE_MESSAGE; 
   fSuccess = SetNamedPipeHandleState( 
      hPipe,    // pipe handle 
      &dwMode,  // new pipe mode 
      NULL,     // don't set maximum bytes 
      NULL);    // don't set maximum time 
   if ( ! fSuccess) 
   {
      _tprintf( TEXT("SetNamedPipeHandleState failed. GLE=%d\n"), GetLastError() ); 
      return -1;
   }

// Send a message to the pipe server. 

   cbToWrite = (lstrlen(lpvMessage)+1)*sizeof(TCHAR);
   _tprintf( TEXT("Sending %d byte message: \"%s\"\n"), cbToWrite, lpvMessage); 

   fSuccess = WriteFile( 
      hPipe,                  // pipe handle 
      lpvMessage,             // message 
      cbToWrite,              // message length 
      &cbWritten,             // bytes written 
      NULL);                  // not overlapped 

   if ( ! fSuccess) 
   {
      _tprintf( TEXT("WriteFile to pipe failed. GLE=%d\n"), GetLastError() ); 
      return -1;
   }

   printf("\nMessage sent to server, receiving reply as follows:\n");

   do 
   { 
   // Read from the pipe. 

      fSuccess = ReadFile( 
         hPipe,    // pipe handle 
         chBuf,    // buffer to receive reply 
         BUFSIZE*sizeof(TCHAR),  // size of buffer 
         &cbRead,  // number of bytes read 
         NULL);    // not overlapped 

      if ( ! fSuccess && GetLastError() != ERROR_MORE_DATA )
         break; 

      _tprintf( TEXT("\"%s\"\n"), chBuf ); 
   } while ( ! fSuccess);  // repeat loop if ERROR_MORE_DATA 

   if ( ! fSuccess)
   {
      _tprintf( TEXT("ReadFile from pipe failed. GLE=%d\n"), GetLastError() );
      return -1;
   }

   printf("\n<End of message, press ENTER to terminate connection and exit>");
   _getch();

   CloseHandle(hPipe); 

   return 0; 
}

我浏览了代码中使用的大多数函数的文档。我没有找到任何可能导致麻烦的操作。 显然在循环中打开文件是不应该存在的。 但是当我编译代码（VS 2010 Ultimate）并运行它时，它失败了
ERROR_IS_SUBSTED错误。 GetLastError返回此错误的位置如下：

while (1) 
       { 
          hPipe = CreateFile( 
             lpszPipename,   // pipe name 
             GENERIC_READ |  // read and write access 
             GENERIC_WRITE, 
             0,              // no sharing 
             NULL,           // default security attributes
             OPEN_ALWAYS,  // opens existing pipe 
             0,              // default attributes 
             NULL);          // no template file 

我还是Windows编程的新手，这些错误代码让我感到困惑。 此错误的msdn文档说明An attempt was made to use a JOIN or SUBST command on a drive that has already been substituted. 那么社区的人也可以

1.Clarify什么是ERROR_IS_SUBSTD？ msdn给出的描述对我来说太神秘了。 :(

2.为什么我收到这个错误？

3.（有点偏离主题）我缺少strace实用程序，它在我的编程生涯中一直是我的追踪/纠正这些错误的救星。 我们在Windows中有类似的东西吗？

除非您的H驱动器是网络共享，否则错误消息看起来像随机废话。 但即使错误消息看起来像随意的废话，你的pipename也会这样做。

要创建命名管道，请在此处参阅MSDN： CreateNamedPipe

pipename必须是这样的

"\\\\.\\pipe\\pipename"
