Terry - thanks, somehow I missed that when reading the archives; :). FrmAddSpaceForObject does work like a charm, and doesn't even seem all that hackish; I hope OS 5 at least allows this kind of access, which is far less intrusive that what I would have done otherwise.
Sajul - well, actually, I have all the control I need over when windows open or close. I'm not planning to put close boxes on these windows, so if somebody closes one, it will be by clicking an "OK" button or a "Close" button or something, and I'll catch the events. I'm basically writing a lightweight window manager on top of the Form API. But also, doesn't FrmDeleteForm destroy all the objects inside the form as well? I believe that's in the documentation....I've been doing that successfully without warnings. I am also using some funny memory management tricks, though (new and delete are overloaded to use a transient heap), so I may be circumventing the issue in other ways. Hope this answers your questions, and as soon as my boss gets back from PalmSource, I can probably answer the questions about whether there are facilities like this in OS 5 for myself.... -d On Thu, 7 Feb 2002, Sajul Pamban Nandakumar wrote: > Hi Terry/Dan, > The code you have given, since it accesses Palm OS internal > structures won't it fail on higher end devices like O.S. 5? > Or is there any new provision for the new OS? > This is for you Dan.
