Hi there,
I've been having a look at the Notification Manager interfaces and have
questions:
* Why have Palm departed from broadcasting launch codes for
notifications? Instead, the Notification Manager SysNotifyRegister
function requires a call back of type SysNotifyProcPtr. I would
have thought it better to have some notification launch code with a
param block pointing to a SysNotifyParamType.
* Apart from callbacks being unconventional for notifications in OS's
< 3.5, how will one determine launch flags within the callback
i.e.. whether globals are available etc.?
* Can we expect to see Palm provide a registry for custom notifyType
values just as they do for creator IDs? We will need one to prevent
program failures.
Other than the above, I welcome the Notification Manager as a good move.
Kind regards,
