I have been using some code to to generate a "unique" registration code for
people who register my shareware app, based on their HotSync user name. My
app checks the HotSync name when they attempt to enter a registration code
and enables all application features if they enter the right code. I would
like to make this work with the new Japanese Palms. This creates various
problems:
1) I don't know what the format of Japanese user names will be. Will they
be encoded with charEncodingCP932, charEncodingShiftJIS, or
charEncodingPalmSJIS?
2) The palmos35colorJapanese.rom on Poser appears to use
charEncodingPalmSJIS, but I am not sure how to test reg codes on it -- some
chars I type are translated to Katakana, some are not.
3) How can I determine all the chars that can be entered into a Japanese
Palm without actually having one?
Any input will be appreciated.
