So, I am confused about the text manager. Each PalmOS device supports
its localized character encoding. But how do you force a PalmOS
device which supports a certain character encoding to use another??
Specifically, I use this function to grab text out of a record, and
put it into a field
If I dig into the pdb file, the record seems to have the correct
character. But, when it displays in the filed, it does not.
static void setText(FieldPtr field, Char* text)
{
MemHandle hfield = FldGetTextHandle(field);
Char* pfield;
if(hfield != NULL)
{
MemHandleResize(hfield, StrLen(text) + 1);
}else{
hfield = MemHandleNew(StrLen(text) +1);
}
pfield = MemHandleLock(hfield);
StrCopy(pfield, text);
MemHandleUnlock(hfield);
FldSetTextHandle(field, hfield);
FldDrawField(field);
return;
}
