I am trying to create a simple app along the lines of 'hello world'. In
this app I do some dynamic memory allocation with MemHandleNew. I wouldn't
think this is a big deal, but when this call is made it corrupts a local
variable. (which eventually causes the app to throw an exception).
Here is rougly what the code looks like
(note that this isn't EXACTLY what it looks like, I just don't have it on
the computer Iam composing this note on)
StartApplication()
{
Int j;
VoidHand h;
...
/* coming into this call j and h are both 0 */
h=MemHandleNew(4096);
/* after the call j=5458 and h=-32768*/
...
}
has anyone seen a problem like this? I am new to both palm programming and
the gcc compiler, however I have been programming for years. In addition
the compiler builds the prc without any errors. My dev environment is win98
with prc tools 0.5.0. I have a palmVx with palmOS 3.1. This is a very
frustrating problem since I can only make the simplest programs run (and not
tmo reliably). At this point any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Trevor Walker
