The HotSync palm app crashes the palm (sometimes, not always) before it even tries to talk to the PC. (There are other failure modes too, I thought HS was an interesting example.) Thanks -rr -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.pa

HotSync hosed -- reflash T|T3 ROMs?

2006-08-29 Thread Rob Riker
My T|T3 has gone squirrelly. Hard resets, total power depletions, physical disassembly, to no avail. I suppose it may be H/W, but I'd like to try reflashing the ROMs before I give up on it. Problem is, I haven't found a release device ROM for the T3 (or a debug version for that matter) with a c

PIM DB format info

2004-10-18 Thread Rob Riker
I feel like I must be missing something... I'm writing an app that needs to snoop around in the Calendar program db for upcoming events. I can't find a good current reference to the record layout though. I think they used to include source for those apps in the SDKs but I don't see them anymore.

OK. I'm using PODS, anything comparable to CW thunks that I should be worrying about? -Rob -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/

Re: 68k callbacks in non-default code sections

2004-08-03 Thread Rob Riker
Interesting, thanks! Does that imply that the intersegment jumps include logic to lock the destination chunk and unlock the source chunk? I was just assuming that all code sections were locked in memory while the app was executing. Did your warning pertain just to callbacks that hit after the app

68k callbacks in non-default code sections

2004-08-03 Thread Rob Riker
Are there restrictions on using different code sections with callbacks? If so, what are the details? I have streaming sound code that works if I leave the streaming sound routines in the default section, but crashes with a bad read if I move it somewhere else. -Rob -- For information on using t

PIM DB format info

2004-08-02 Thread Rob Riker
Hello, I'd like to check appointment schedules from another app. In the olden days, it seemed safe to infer the calendar DB details from the source that was provided in the SDK. Now that it doesn't seem to be provided I'm not so sure. Is the format published? Is reading the PIM DBs discouraged o

Silly question re control groups

2004-07-20 Thread Rob Riker
OK, I feel a little silly posting this one, since it must be right in front of my face somewhere, but damned if I can find it... Given a control on a form, how does one get its group id? It's part of the ControlType struct, but the docs say we're supposed to treat that struct as opaque & use a g

Re: PODS debugger problem on Sim

2004-06-27 Thread Rob Riker
Thanks for the quick response. The Sim is unresponsive in the Palm sense -- the devnub console window gets replaced with a blank yellow screen when I tell eclipse that the target has launched, but no amount of clicking around, including on the Palm command bar, has any effect. (The sim does stil

PODS debugger problem on Sim

2004-06-26 Thread Rob Riker
Whenever I try to use PODS to debug anything (e.g., the HelloWorld template project), the debugger fires up the 5.4 sim OK, the debug console pops up on the sim, and the Windows-side console shows: Section 'Dtest code:' loaded @ 0x58000cb8 on card 0 ( Sect(1) ) Section 'Dtest code:0001' load

Sound capabilities of PalmSim 5.3.0.0

2004-05-21 Thread Rob Riker
I'm debugging an app that does some sound recording and playback, and before I finish beating my head against the wall trying to get it to work I wanted to confirm that PalmSim 5.3 does in fact support both direction sound streams -- picking up the mike from Windows. I'm only getting white noise
