Access OSCall>>getLastError after an async call

[Neil Morrison]

We are trying to improve some error handling after calling into a Windows OS API.
As per usual gives you a 0/1 for success/failure and then you use the getLastError to find out what happend.

This mechanism works fine for inline calls but never gives a value when using asyncCalls. Can understand this - different threads etc maybe!

I've been trying to discover if there is a way to determine this value from an asyncCall?

Thanks

If you load OpenSSL, and look at senders of lockThreadIn: , I think the OpenSSL dispatcher does the same thing you want, using lockThreadIn: to ensure the SciSslFunctions::SSL_get_error function is called using the same thread as the initial async call. Cheers,
