ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

Since kernel 2.6.19, Linux supports an alternate syntax for the
/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern file. If the first character of this file is a
pipe symbol (|), then the remainder of the line is interpreted as a program to
be executed. Instead of being written to a disk file, the core dump is given
as standard input to the program.
I am exactly encountering the same problem now. Only change is I have a shell script (start.sh) which starts my application. To, pipe core file, I opened an another shell script (shellscript.sh) from start.sh which contains gzip commands.
Start.sh : (required lines for core file generation)
############################################################################
#!/bin/sh
If I do above script, then there is no core generated.
But the same script without piping works (i.e core file is generated).
I am looking to zip my core file while it is generating. Anybody here have some inputs ?
