get_handle_creator_thread_id Method

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

Syntax

def get_handle_creator_thread_id() -> int: ...

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 on_after_create_file and on_after_open_file 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 on_after_create_file or on_after_open_file 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.

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