Hi, everybody:
i am new in Palm programming ...
i define a following type ..
typedef struct {
Char name[2];
UInt8 reserved;
} MyRecordType;
when i try to save a record ...
MyRecordType newrecord;
recordH =
DmNewRecord(dbP,&CurrentRecord,sizeof(MyRecordType));
if (recordH)
{
recordP = (MyRecordType*)MemHandleLock(recordH);
a = "nasri";
StrCopy(newrecord.name,a) ;
DmWrite(recordP,OffsetOf(MyRecordType,name),
&newrecord.name, sizeof(newrecord.name));
MemHandleUnlock(recordH);
DmReleaseRecord(dbP, CurrentRecord, true);
}
when i retrieve the record, i use :
recordH = DmQueryRecord (dbP, CurrentRecord);
if (recordH)
{
recordP = (MyRecordType*)MemHandleLock(recordH);
hello = recordP->name;
FrmCustomAlert(MyAlert,hello, NULL,NULL);
MemHandleUnlock(recordH);
}
however, it comes out 'na0' ....
anybody knows the reason ?? it only can accept 3
characters ?? how do i define MyRecordType so that
'name' field can accept whatever user enter regardless
on how many characters it have ...
thanks a lot
