GetHandleCreatorThreadId Method

Retrieves the Id of the thread that opened the file handle.

Syntax

public int getHandleCreatorThreadId();

Remarks

This method can be called within certain events to retrieve the Id of the thread that opened the file handle. If the query fails, this method returns 0.

Please note that thread Ids are not unique, and may be reused by different threads over time.

Note: This method can only be called within the AfterCreateFile and AfterOpenFile events, and must be called in the same thread that the event was originally fired on. Applications that need the information that this method returns during other events can do the following:

  1. Call this method within the AfterCreateFile or AfterOpenFile event.
  2. Store the information somewhere, and store a reference to it in the event's HandleContext parameter.
  3. In a later event, access the information via the reference stored in HandleContext.
Please refer to the Contexts topic for more information on how to use events' context parameters.

Note: This method cannot be used from CleanupContext event handlers.
