Close on named pipe server does not allow re-listening on the same address about go-winio HOT 4 OPEN

Close() of the listener should do this for you, if I am reading the code properly. It calls Close() on the underlying handle, and does the handshake to ensure that that goroutine is done.

One thing that might be an issue is that you might have to close open pipe instances (meaning connections) ... I'm not 100% about that.

Any updates regarding reuse the same pipe name? The listener.Close() doesn't work properly. "Access is denied" error still occurs.

I think this is a problem if there are still clients connected. It seems to be a problem with the semantics of Named Pipes.

You're right, thanks. It is strange because I can't send something after listener.Close() so I thought the namedpipe is closed but the underlying handle still exists. In summary, I have to close the connection after listener.Accept().
