I've been working with the "InetLow" Internet Library sample code, found at:
http://oasis.palm.com/dev/kb/samples/1709.cfm
This example was written to retrieve "text" data from a host.
I'm trying to retrieve a 5Kb Palm bitmap and it will only retrieve about
300 bytes. I'm thinking I need to tell the socket that I am reading a
binary stream. I tried altering the following code...
<snip1>
INetLowInfoType inetInfoBlock;
UInt16 inetFlags = 0; // Won't use this, but you could set
// to use the cache, etc.
UInt16 sockFlags = 0;
UInt16 sockFlagsL = sizeof(UInt16);
Err error = 0;
error = INetLibSockSettingSet(inetInfoBlock.inetRefNum,
inetInfoBlock.inetSockH,
inetSockSettingFlags,
(MemPtr)&inetFlags,
sizeof(inetFlags));
</snip1>
like this
<snip2>
INetLowInfoType inetInfoBlock;
UInt16 inetFlags = 0;
UInt16 sockFlags = 0;
UInt16 sockFlagsL = sizeof(UInt16);
Err error = 0;
inetFlags = inetContentTypeImagePalmOS; // Palm OS bitmap
error = INetLibSockSettingSet(inetInfoBlock.inetRefNum,
inetInfoBlock.inetSockH,
inetSockSettingContentTypeID, // set the content type.
(MemPtr)&inetFlags, // to a Palm OS bitmap
sizeof(inetFlags));
</snip2>
The code in snip2 returns an error value of 5148. The API states this call
should return one of three values:
0 - no error
inetErrSettingNotImplemented - "Invalid setting specified" (S/B 1403)
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid - "bufLen is the incorrect size for the
setting" (S/B 1402)
So the 5148 return value is way out in the weeds. Does anyone have any idea
how to set up the socket for a Palm bitmap (binary stream?)
Do I need to alter further code? Any comments are welcome.
TIA,
