I'm aware of this and it makes me not exactly happy. A workaround might be a bit tricky. Using the Async I/O facility of LockFileEx requires to call CreateFile already with FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED. This in turn requires to rewrite ReadFile and WriteFile calls to use overlapped IO as well. > 2003-12-06 Pierre Humblet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > * syscalls.cc (locked_append): New. > (updwtmp): Remove mutex code and call locked_append. > (pututline): Ditto.
