Navigator button on Tungsten T2
Hi I am using a Tungsten T2 device, I just wanted to know which event is fired when you press the right and left of the navigation button. I had assumed that these would send KeyDown Event and I used to handle "chrRightArrow" for right press, "chrLeftArrow" for left press, "chrDownArrow" for down press and "chrUpArrow" for up press. From these the code for Up and Down press works fine but the code for Right and Left does not get excuted. Can anyone help me.

Re: Memory Manager Error
Hi, We tried using ErrAlert in the Notification handler, but Palm device hangs and I have to reset it.. Which is more useful to debug such types of bug is it Simulator or Emulator. In case of Emulator from where will I get debug ROM for Palm OS 5.0.. I could find debug ROM s till Palm OS 4.1 Some info on what i am doing .. We have written a serial keyboard driver,We check the serial data through polling with the help of notification.. When we try to for eg open a new memo pad using short cut key for new memo then new memo comes up but after some time it is followed by this error...

Invalid Chunk ptr , hotsync
Hello All , 1) I have written an application for palm OS 4.1 which uses feature set & the serial manager heavily . It works quite ok on palm os 4.1 . but when ported to palm 5.0 , it crashes after giving this message : " MemoryMgr.c , Line:3685, Invalid chunk ptr You may need to restart the handheld by performing a soft reset. Please press the RESET button RESET " Are there any changes to be made in case of global variables , feature set , etc ? Please advise . 2) I have used " sysNotifyEventDequeuedEvent " to poll the serial device . But when i start the application , after that hotsync does not work unless i soft reset the palm device . Even the " sysNotifySyncStartEvent " & " sysNotifySyncFinishEvent " to unregister my polling function do not work . The hotsync hangs even then . Why don't these notifications work in Palm os 5.0 ?

palm 5 query
Hello , We have written an application , which registers a notification for each event used up from the system event queue . And the function which receives this notification has been used as a timer ISR . In which we compare two time-ticks values & depending on that , we do some further processing . Similar code works fine for Palm OS 4.1 where we have used a trap for EvtGetEvent for this . But this code does not work on Palm OS 5.0 . The difference between the initial ticks & the ticks taken in that ISR does not seem to increase at all . Why this is so ? Please help at the earliest possible .

Should the Japanese overlays be created similar to the way they are created for a Palm OS 4.1 ( i.e. using the prctoOvl tool ) ? or is there any addition in this process for Palm OS 5.0 ?

FrmGotoForm(PleasewaitForm);
AppEventLoop();
error = AppStart();
if (error == ErrCommError )
{ // if error in AppStart , don't launch the UI & return .
DriverStop() ;
return error;
}
// start application by opening the main form
// and then entering the main event loop
FrmGotoForm(MainForm);
AppEventLoop();
AppStop();
}

Serial Manager Query
Hi, I am using new serial manager ( OS 3.5 and above) . I want to get first 11 bytes from the the serial and later (after validating 11 bytes) the rest of the bytes from serial.But, at a time I get about 31 bytes on serial port. I am not able to get only 11 bytes first and later the remaining bytes. I tried using SrmReceive but in that case it always returns with Timeout error.( even if timeout given is very large). I have called SrmReceive from a notification handler. Does this mean that SrmReceive cant be called from a notification handler?Why does this happen? If i use SrmReceiveWindowOpen then i get all the bytes in the serial buffer and not just 11. So, I have to then keep track of all the bytes and code is becoming complex. Is there any way to get this done? Thanks in advance Regards Marianne -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
