Hi All,
I want to transfer data in to several databases in the Palm. The databases
will be created by the conduit during HotSync. What I want to do is to
calculate the amount of free RAM required in the Palm, before I start the
data transfer. I know the total size of the data in Palm format. I tried
using SyncReadSingleCardInfo to get the amount free RAM in Palm. However,
even though the amount free RAM returned by the SyncReadSingleCardInfo is
greater than the total size of the data, the conduit fails due to lack of
memory, while writing the records to Palm. Is there a formula to calculate
the amount of space required in Palm, given the no, of records and total
size of the records? I assume I have to include the database overheads, but
is there anything else I am missing? I have tried writing PDBs in the PC and
then use the PDB size to calculate the memory required in Palm. But it
didn't work out.
I am using Windows 98, MSVC 6.0, Palm III (OS 3.3)/ Palm V, HotSync manager
3.0.4.
Thanks for your help.
