Question about file handles and windows handles @ Windows Operating Systems
 

Very hard to find right function...

If I open file
fname="c:\\temp\\foobar.txt"
file_foobar = file(fname)
file_foobar.fileno() returns 3 becausee of unix like library used
in windows python....

If I'd like to get to known what windows handle it has

hfile=win32file.CreateFile( ff,win32con.GENERIC_READ|
win32con.GENERIC_WRITE,win32con.FILE_SHARE_READ|
win32con.FILE_SHARE_WRITE,None,
win32con.OPEN_ALWAYS,win32con.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMA L , 0 )

hfile.handle returns 88

Are there any function to get windows handle of file which is already
opened with built-in file-function.
