I think NVFS may not reorganize applications in the on-file-system file
in
order to reduce the risk of corrupting an application.
Have you considered "copy the resources you want to a new DB, delete the
old
one, rename the new one"?
thanks Ben, that did the job. Or at least a slight twist on it. Given that
the issue is only with NVFS, it seemed appropriate to make full use of the
hidden volume.
Must say though, it seems thorougly wierd for my app to be deleting itself
from feature memory...
nvfsVol=NVFSVolRefNum();
if (nvfsVol)
{
UInt16 cardNo;
LocalID dbID;
DmSearchStateType searchInfo;
Boolean tempCreated=false;
DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator(true, &searchInfo, sysFileTApplication,
launcherFileCreator, true, &cardNo, &dbID);
error=VFSExportDatabaseToFile (nvfsVol,"/TempFile.prc",cardNo,dbID);
if (!error)
{
tempCreated=true;
error=DmDeleteDatabase (cardNo,dbID);
if (!error)
{error=VFSImportDatabaseFromFile
(nvfsVol,"/TempFile.prc",&cardNo,&dbID);
}
else
{
Char dispStr[10];
StrIToA(dispStr,error);
DisplayMessageForABitOutsideApp(dispStr,50);
}
}
if(tempCreated)
{
error=VFSFileDelete(nvfsVol,"/TempFile.prc");
}
}
