The NuTCRACKER Platform is the runtime component of Toolkit that provides UNIX system-layer emulation in a Win32 environment.

It is possible to retrieve the underlying Win32 handle from the NuTCRACKER Platform with the _NutFdToHandle() API (or donate a handle to the NuTCRACKER Platform with _NutHandleToFd()). It is not possible, however, to share socket handles in this way. Once the NuTCRACKER Platform owns a socket handle, you may not continue to manipulate it with Win32 calls and vice versa. Yes. Toolkit implements FIFOs that are compatible with standard UNIX implementations. See similar questions...

You could have a byte-ordering problem. The MKS Toolkit Resource Kit contains a port of ONC RPC, including XDR. The XDR functions (and the program RPCGEN) help you encode and decode binary data. The resource kit contains a sample use of XDR to save/retrieve a data structure in a platform neutral form, using the xdrstdio library. Libraries exist for UDP, TCP, memory, and the file system. The Toolkit socket library has implementations of htons(), htonl(), ntohs(), and ntohl(). See similar questions...
