[ros-dev] connect gdb to named pipe in ms virtual pc session

[Theodor Willax]

Hello Filip,

I see what your patch should achieve. But pipetunnel doesn't work although I 
defined out the serial port detection code according to your patch.

I will post if I'm successful in getting pipetunnel to work on virtual pc.

Thanks,
Theo
