----------------------------------------------------------------

@Ben you early acquire handle by initialization list. Why not do it as last operation in c-tor body, following the rule "do everything what can fail first, then commit". In case exception is thrown if the handle will not be closed and the constructing thread has more possibilites left to continue execution.

@Ben pull request has the same bug as my patch 0003 has, see patch 0004 ( Initializing readOverlap_.h )

> Application bahavior utilizing TNamedPipeServer is unpredictable due misuse of TAutoHandle.
> Project uses TAutoHandle class, an analogy of std::unique_ptr, for managing WIN32 handles. The dangerous members of this concept are: the direct getter "HANDLE TAutoHandle::h" and release method "void __thiscall TAutoHandle::release()" 
> Below code citation introduces serous bug:
> {code:java}
> {
>     TAutoCrit lock(pipe_protect_);
>     GlobalOutput.printf("Client connected.");
>     shared_ptr<TPipe> client(new TPipe(Pipe_.h));
>     Pipe_.release();
> }
> {code}
> The getter is  used in TNamedPipeServer::acceptImpl() to pass internal  handle value to c-tor of TPipe and just after c-tion HANDLE__thiscall TAutoHandle::release() is called to release ownership. That means the TPipe object is expected to take ownership of the resource, but if TPipe c-tor throws the d-tor of TAutoHandle is called releasing the resource and the incomplete TPipe object does the same. Since now it is impossible to ensure that the second free of the handle value was not performed on a resource that was opened in meantime by other thread.
> I propose to solve the issue by ensuring the handle is not owned by two objects at a time.
