Hi, I have a situation where I want a form to send an event to another form when it closes and ask it to perform an application-specific function. I was suprised that there is not an event type for app-specific events or events carrying app-specific pointers or data. We use this kind of thing all

Re: Custom event

You can create your own custom events. The following are defined in Event.h firstUserEvent = 0x6000, lastUserEvent = 0x7FFF In the data filed of an EventType there is a generic field. This is defined in SysEvent.h as :- struct _GenericEventType { UInt16 datum[8];

Re: Custom event

There is one major defect with custom events. Two or more applications and/or OS extensions may use the same custom event number. With virtual chars, companies, I guess with mucho money, could reserve certain virtual chars to themselves. To be honest, I use dozens of custom events and I have

Custom event loop in POL

I have a program that needs to constantly monitor the serial port for data. My old version of the program, written in C w/ PRC-tools, redifined the EventLoop function, but now that I'm using POL and a derivation of the CPalmApp object, what's the right way to do this? Should I have a function tha

help creating a custom event loop

Hi all, New member with my first question. Can someone explain how to setup a custom event loop? I think I understand the general concepts, create a que, create functions for pointer initialization, adding events, consuming events, and cleaning up. It's the details i am a bit fuz

Re: Custom event loop in POL

re: help creating a custom event loop

There are lots of details too numerous to mention that need to be handled. Best advice I can give you is to register as a developer with PalmSource, then download the OS source code and look at some examples, e.g. LstPopupList in file List.c. Dave -- For information on using the Palm Developer
