# Windows Shared Memory


Windows IPC library using shared memory. Supports 32-bit/64-bit cross-process communication.

## Installation


```toml
[dependencies]
windows_shared_memory = "0.1.4"
```

## Usage


```rust
use windows_shared_memory::{Server, Client, ReceiveMessage};

// Server
let server = Server::new(None).unwrap();
server.send(b"Hello").unwrap();
if let ReceiveMessage::Message(msg) = server.receive(Some(1000)) {
    println!("{}", msg);
}

// Client (separate process)
let client = Client::new(None).unwrap();
if let ReceiveMessage::Message(msg) = client.receive(Some(1000)) {
    println!("{}", msg);
}
client.send(b"Hi").unwrap();
```

Custom path:
```rust
let server = Server::new(Some("Local\\MyShm")).unwrap();
let client = Client::new(Some("Local\\MyShm")).unwrap();
```
