Re: Incorrect PRC file ?

[Ken Krugler]

With PRC explorer (v1.0.19.1), I clearly see the 24 bitmaps that I 
declared in my app. They are named Tbmp 9 to Tbmp 32. They can be 
displayed => ok.

I have 2 additional Tbmps, named Tbmp 1 and Tbmp 2.
Tbmp 1 : when I click on it, I get message "TBitmap parsing error - 
unknown version", and it displays "Resource size 72292 bytes"
Tbmp 2 : when I click on it, I get another message "TBitmap parsing 
error - wrong size", and it displays "Resource size 19266 bytes"
Wild guess - these aren't actually bitmaps, but rather code/data. I 
don't know anything about CaslSoft, though, so I couldn't guess at 
how this might be happening.

Please send me the PRC with the faulting bitmaps (you can strip the rest of the 
resources if you want with PRCExplorer) so I can fix PRCExplorer.

Cordially,

RE: Incorrect PRC file ?

[Eric Cloninger]

If your image is too large inside the PRC, it will not transfer.  A 72K
bitmap is not allowed and Hotsync will choke trying to transfer it.  I'm
surprised that your development tool doesn't pick up on this problem
earlier.  

In your project settings, do you have compression turned on for the
bitmaps?  I don't use Casl, so I don't know how this works, but there
are several compression settings that you can use for Palm bitmaps.
Perhaps you can turn one of them on.  If it is already compressed, you
will have to cut the image down or some programming method to get the
image(s) to draw.

As for the 19K bitmap, it's likely that you have an incorrect bitmap
header.  Palm bitmaps have a fairly rigid structure that doesn't take
kindly to invalid values.

If you want to email me directly, I can look at the bitmaps using my
tools.  Send me the PRC file you are compiling in a zip file.  Don't
reply to this list or your email will bounce from the attachment.

Are you using Codewarrior?
I don't know if this is the problem, but check that you don't have any 
zero-size segments. That used to cause all sorts of screwey problems.

We develop with CaslSoft. All our code segments are 30Kb max.
But indeed file Tbmp0001 is 73Kb.
We do not know what it is. When editing it (we're not expert), it seems it

We do not know how to break this file into smaller pieces.
Any idea ?

Tbmp0001 sounds like an Bitmap file. Use prc-explorer to see the content.

Re: Incorrect PRC file ?

[Chris Apers]

This is because you have a resource bigger than 64000B
Check your resource items and segments size to know where
is the problem.

check the resource sizes. use zlib to make it smaller or split it in 
several records.
