From 42a8158b1dca6ee4ec1707176199cc36c26da7af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Tokarev Date: Fri, 4 May 2012 16:41:47 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] add (errnum) in front of windows error messages On localized, non-English versions of windows, it is common to have two active charsets -- for console applications and for GUI applications, together with localized error messages returned by windows. But two charsets are rarely compatible, so sending the same byte sequence to console and to windows event log makes one or another to be unreadable. So at least include the error number, this way it will be possible to lookup the actual error test using external ways.
