Just looked at the 3.5 source for Launcher. Sure enough, it sends
sysAppLaunchCmdSyncNotify to the received database unless it's a PQA.
Definitely not right.
The latest source sends this launch code to:
- the received database, if it's an application (type == 'appl')
- to the application with the same creator ID, otherwise
If the received database isn't an application, and there is no application
with the same creator ID, no sync notify launch is done.
The work-around is to send the plug-in database to your application, rather
than to Launcher. I assume you're using the extension ".prc", and that's why
Launcher's getting it. You could invent a new extension or MIME type, or you
could specify the target creator ID. For a Palm-specific app, the latter is
fine. Another work-around would be to make your plug-ins handle sync notify.
Weird, I know, but it should work.
