Check this out to see that you need to create both pipes (by calling the WINAPI twice) as reiterated by Nat but what about the inheritable handles - not sure why this is needed?

I think what might also be confusing is that when you create a pipe you are creating a read handle and a write handle for that pipe. In the case of the console's stdin pipe you will only use the write handle. Then you create another pipe for the console's stdout (which will also have a read and write handle) but you will only use the read handle.

I believe I have that correct but it is late and I'm going to bed.
