The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSConsole handles created with the DuplicateHandle() API do not receive the inherit attribute specified in the DuplicateHandle() call. This applies to console handles originally created with the CreateFile() API. CAUSEWhen duplicating console handles, DuplicateHandle() does not give the resulting handle the inheritance parameter specified in the call. Instead the inheritance property of the parent handle is passed on to the created handle. RESOLUTIONTo create a console handle with a desired inherence, you can call CreateFile() multiple times. Each call creates a handle with the inheritance specified in the security attributes structure passed in the CreateFile() call. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. Additional query words:
