Is there a function you can call in CW to get a stack dump while executing the program. In other words what I want is a function like: static char pStack[256]; void foo() { DumpStack( pStack, 256 ); // Get the current stack state WriteToMemoPad( pStack );

Does anyone know why CW uses global memory for the exception handling (it seems to use about 2 bytes per try catch block). I know Palm offers its own exceptions based on setjump, but I am more currious as to why the compiler needs the global space. Oliver -- For information on using the Palm

Yes, on a Palm, Inc. device, that number printed on the back of the device is available from code. BUT: 1. If the device gets re-flashed, this number might change (the number on the back obviously does not). 2. Other manufacturers handle it differently. Current Handspring units, for example, do
