Hey guys -
We are attempting to transfer .prc's via a cell phone to a palm for the
purposes of upgrade. I don't think this would normally be a problem, but we
have 1 particular program that is pushing 400K right now, and still growing.
Here are a few solutions that we thought of, but ruled out for one reason or
another:
1. Open the PRC in the server application ( Win32 VB application on a Win2K
machine ) and send binary data to the connected palm. That palm could store
the information in a MemPtr and then create the prc using the
DmCreateDatabaseFromImage() function.
Problem? Would need a 400k ptr, which I don't think PalmOS will let you do.
Will it?
2. Send the prc a record at a time, and have the palm store the records in
a new database, thus creating the prc.
Problem? This may be do-able, but reading and breaking up the prc on the
server side doesn't sound like the easiest thing in the world.
Does anyone have any suggestions? The communication between the server and
the palm is already established using sockets, so that really isn't an
issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
