What we could (relatively) easily do is
1 ) Do not return an error condition if hEvent == NULL.
2 ) Handle hEvent == NULL correctly elsewhere ( in particular,
in the async handler where the event would normally be set ).
3 ) In GetOverlappedResult(), simply skip the waiting for
hEvent == NULL.
This may not be enough though.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/getoverlappedresult.asp
says that for NT/2000,XP, "if the hEvent member of the OVERLAPPED
structure is NULL, the system uses the state of the hFile handle to
signal when the operation has been completed". I doubt that wine can
(easily) support this behavior, but I'm not sure.
Please tell me if you think 1-3 would suffice for you.
