Some WinAPI to check which process created a named pipe?

Question

Is there some WinAPI call which would tell me who (which process) has created the named pipe?

Note: Asking this questions, I have a feeling it "smells" somehow, and a proper design will be to communicate the process ID/handle using other means, however getting this information from the pipe itself would be simpler, and therefore if there is such API, I would probably still use it.

Answer 1

No, there isn't. And you are right about the smell.
