Hi, I have read the article regarding above bug, but nothing helped. My application consists of three segments: 36k, 24k and 22k. "Host TCP/IP" and "Use TCP/IP sockets" are checked. Constructor is off. What could be the problem? Thank you, Vitaly -- For information on using the Palm Developer

Paul, Public/private key systems as used on the internet can be used in a limited way on the Palm. Our software now uses a 30-bit RSA-based encryption (I think we're allowed to do that, 'cos we're not American), with the public key in the product and the private key in our PC-based code generator

This is turning into a infamous error. If Metrowerks is having a tough time fixing this bug since their code base is over abstracted, at least make this error message more understandable with wording like the following... "The debugger can't communicate with the PalmOS emulator. Please try o
