Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on DAEMON-360:
-------------------------------------------
Not using Windows at the moment, and unfortunately do not have a box to test
and reproduce it.
But some quick searching led me to this [post from 2015 in Tom's Hardware
forums|http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2775794/data-area-passed-system-call-small.html],
which contains links to three support articles in Microsoft for that.
* [249721 Error Message: Data Area Passed to a System Call Is Too
Small.|https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/249721/error-message-data-area-passed-to-a-system-call-is-too-small.]
* [273023 Error Message: The Data Area Passed to a System Call Is Too
Small|https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/273023/error-message-the-data-area-passed-to-a-system-call-is-too-small]
* [810065 FIX: The "Data area passed to a system call is too small" error
message is logged when you call the CreateEx method at the same time in a
multiple-thread application that uses the Virtual Device Interface feature of
SQL Server
2000|https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/810065/fix-the-data-area-passed-to-a-system-call-is-too-small-error-message-is-logged-when-you-call-the-createex-method-at-the-same-time-in-a-multiple-thread-application-that-uses-the-virtual-device-interface-feature-of-sql-server-2000]
These three articles seem to have a solution involving changing settings in
Windows, or Windows utilities. I think this issue has no simple solution in the
library code. Will leave it open for a while to see what others think too.
Cheers
