andrew,

Not so long ago (19 Nov 02) you wrote to Stas:

Here's the code which is working in GoldED+:

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------

#if defined(__MINGW32__) || defined(_MSC_VER)

int lock(int fh, long offs, long len) {

  if(LockFile((HANDLE)_get_osfhandle(fh), offs, 0L, len, 0L)) return 0;
  else return -1;
}

#endif


//  ------------------------------------------------------------------

#if defined(__MINGW32__) || defined(_MSC_VER)

int unlock(int fh, long offs, long len) {

  if(UnlockFile((HANDLE)_get_osfhandle(fh), offs, 0L, len, 0L)) return 0;
  else return -1;
}

#endif

WBR, Alexander
