Subject: Using InetLib Directly
I am currently writing an application in C which uses the Internet Library
directly, because it offers me much more flexibility than writing a PQA
offers. However, when using the Palm VII, the only way I can send/receive
data over the radio link is through the "Elaine" proxy server. The problem
with this is that all incoming data via the INetLibSockRead() call is
compressed using some sort of proprietary algorithm and it appears that it
will take me longer to decipher this than I can afford.
So my question is: Is there some API available on Palm OS 3.2 running on the
Palm VII which can decompress this data for me? Or is there some "magic" way
to force reception of uncompressed data? I did find that if I can run over
the wire (which is useless for me) that I can bypass the proxy server in the
Internet Library and receive uncompressed data. Unfortunately, you can't
bypass the proxy server if you are running over the radio.
Can anyone help? Time is of the essence. Thank you.
